Hi Thomas,

actualy I did not use the patch script. But on the other hand I don't like the way it modifies my kernel. Since CVS can't deal with
links...
Is it possible to add an option that uses copies instead of links?
That would be fine.

Now I will test it with the automaticaly patched kernel. Thanks.

Stephan
