[linux-lvm] patching linux kernel 2.2.16

[Peter Michael Nielsen <pmn@post10.tele.dk>]

Help.

I need som information about patching kernel 2.2.16 with 0.8final
When I try to patch I get the following response:

------------------------------------------------------
[root@pemi /root]# tar xfz lvm_0.8final.tar.gz 

[root@pemi /root]# gzip -dc patch-lvm_0.8final-2.gz|(cd /usr/src/linux;
patch -p1)
can't find file to patch at input line 9
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|The following fixes are required to compile the user
|mode tools with glibc2.1 (SuSE 6.3, RHAT 6.?).

Can anyone give me at hint to solve this.
