I am currently at 2.4.9. In order to get to ac4, do I have to apply ac1 to 4 (in that order) or can I just apply ac4 (to get to ac4) or just ac5 (to get to ac5 with ac4 automatically included). That is, are these independent patches (for different parts of the kernel) or, are they all for "ide" with each containing all preceeding ones. Floyd,
