    how can I apply a kernel patch ?

    Hi there,
    I want to apply a couple of kernel patches but I am a bit unfamiliar with this kind of operation.
    Here is the situation: my Knoppix is the latest 3.3 version (2004-02-16) so the kernel is the 2.4.24-xfs.
    I have downloaded the corresponding sources from Klaus' server. They are unpacked in /usr/src/kernel-sources-2.4.24-xfs
    I now want to apply a patch ... what you be the command? do I have to change lilo.conf? boot.img?
    Thanks for your help

    well ... i am afraid i'll need more than that ...

    basically i install the kernel sources, the patches I want to add
    then I patch with the knoppix-kernel.patch
    then make-kpkg --append-to-version=-20040310 --added-patches=mypatches kernel_image modules_image

    so far so good ... everything goes well

    the problem comes when i want to install this new kernel-image ...
    if i do dpkg --install with my new kernel ... i get an error saying "can't find /etc/fstab"

    any clue ?
