Problems to apply a custom patch kernel 2.6.18-1.2257.fc5

[Ronin_tekorei]

Hello my friends.

I'm have a route patch make by Julian Anastasov. You can find it here http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes

I want to merge it to my current kernel 2.6.18-1.2257.fc5 of fedora core 5.

The "patch" command does not work.

patch -p0 --dry-run /path/to /route/patch

it dont tell me if the patch is good for my kernel and apply it whitout the --dry-run option does not work either

Can any one help me please?

i know little about kernel.

Get into the source location and try this:

1. cd <path>/linux-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5/

2. cat <patch file name> | patch -p0

or

cat <patch file name> | patch -p1


It shud work..
