patch -p1 command switch not works for me:
[rootXXXXXXXX linux]# patch -R -p1 < patch-2.6.27.21
can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff --git a/Documentation/cciss.txt b/Documentation/cciss.txt
|index 8244c64..48d80d9 100644
|--- a/Documentation/cciss.txt
|+++ b/Documentation/cciss.txt
--------------------------
File to patch: ^C
[rootXXXXXXXX linux]#

What is the solution for this?
I have Fedora 10.
