What command did you attempt to use to patch the kernel? I just used the
PNPBIOS patch yesterday against a Debian 2.4.16 kernel source without
problems. In the (unpacked) kernel source directory, say,
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.16, I did
patch -p1 <[patchfilename]
assuming your patch is in the same directory. Is it failing to patch?
