Salutations to all
Hi.
I am a newbie and am having trouble with the patch command. I'm trying
to patch my kernel (2.0.36) 5.2 with a ipchains patch and nothing
happens. If I enter for example gunzip patch-ipchaines.blah | patch p0
it return to a prompt straight away, no error, no information, no
nothing.
If I enter just patch, again nothing *appears* to happen, but this time
I don't even get a prompt again, until I press ctrl-c.
What am I doing wrong? I have read the "man patch" and have followed the
instructions, also variations that I have found of the web yet nothing
appears to happen.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Warren.
