All,

        HELP!  I am trying to install LKCD onto a Dell PowerEdge 6650 
running Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 and the 2.4.9-e.25enterprise 
kernel.  Here are my results:

1.  Install kernel-source-2.4.9-e.25.i386.rpm.
2.  Copy /usr/src/linux-2.4.9-e.25 to /usr/src/linux-2.4.9-e.25.lkcd
3.  cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.9-e.25.lkcd
4.  patch -p1 < /root/lkcd-4.1-1-2.4.9.patch

        This is where the trouble starts.  I get many errors of the 
following types:

Hunk #1 succeeded at 162 with fuzz 1 (offset 14 lines).
Hunk #2 FAILED at 262.
Hunk #3 succeeded at 290 with fuzz 2 (offset 31 lines).
Hunk #4 succeeded at 350 (offset 19 lines).
1 out of 4 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej
can't find file to patch at input line 63
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff -Naur linux/arch/alpha/config.in 
linux-2.4.9.lkcd/arch/alpha/config.in
|--- linux/arch/alpha/config.in Sun Aug 12 23:21:41 2001
|+++ linux-2.4.9.lkcd/arch/alpha/config.in      Thu May 30 15:26:24 2002

        Not only are there many hunks that fail, but it also complains 
about missing seven different files.  When I finish and menuconfig the 
option to enable lkcd doesn't even appear in the Kernel Hacking section. 
Am I using the wrong patch for this kernel, or is there another issue 
anyone can see?

Thanks,
