Subject: prepatching errors

Message-ID: <87k64fz0nj.fsf@pereiro.peloton> (raw)
Hi,
I'm trying to apply the 2.6.18-rc6 prepatch (from
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.18-rc6.bz2)
to the 2.6.17.11 sources (from
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.17.11.tar.bz2) using
patch -p1 < ~/patch-2.6.18-rc6
and I'm seeing various error messages, e.g.:
patching file Makefile
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1.
1 out of 39 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej
...
patching file arch/um/kernel/time_kern.c
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
Skipping patch.
1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file arch/um/kernel/time_kern.c.rej
Am I doing something wrong? Is this normal?
I'm downloading the 2.6.17.11 tarball again just in case I've confused
something, but I've been untaring the raw material from a file I have
called linux-2.6.17.11.tar.bz2, so it seems unlikely.
Any advice appreciated!
Thanks,
