2.4.19-pre8-ac2 kbuild 2.4 tmp_include_depends

I am definitely a newbie as far as patch file handling is concerned.

I took the patch portion starting from

diff -ur 2.4.19-pre8-ac2/Makefile 2.4.19-pre8-ac2-test/Makefile

and ending with

MODVERFILE := $(TOPDIR)/include/linux/modversions.h

which is the last line,
and made it a file named Keith.patch. Then, I went to /usr/src/linux and issued

patch -p1 < Keith.patch

Well.... That did not work. WHat did I do wrong?

Thanks a lot.

Download message in raw format, save as text not source and patch direct from the downloaded file, no need to edit it. If patches are too difficult, just use unpatched 2.4.19-pre8-ac2 with 'make clean dep' instead of 'make dep clean'.
