OK, I know ck-sources are in portage, but not the 2.6.15 versions, as they're still marked as pre-release by kernel.org and Con Kolivas himself.
And yes, this probably is a Bad Idea, but I'd still like to use the latest patches.

So, my question is this; do I need to apply the patches from kernel.org to a 2.6.14 vanilla, then patch that to the ck version? Or can I just apply the ck patch? I figured it might be easier to extract the patch file from CK's site, but it won't extract, only bzcat works.

Cheers, DarkWeaver.

You need to get 2.6.14, then apply the 2.6.15-rc2 patch, then apply the 2.6.15-rc2-ck2 patch to that.

Also, if you're on stable arch, you can do an:

Code:
echo "sys-kernel/vanilla-sources ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords ; emerge -av vanilla-sources


Then download and apply ck patchset.

Cool, thanks for the replies. I spose emerging vanilla then patching that would have been easier than injecting my kernel, but I got it to work in the end, and am now using it.
