Sometimes, some shell > scripts providede with some Negatory on that, Willy! Here is what I have verified: At kernel.org:/pub/linux/v2.4 file: patch-2.4.34.3.bz2 has the corruption at line 213: goto errout That is where that came from, when I patched my 2.4.34 to arrive at 2.4.34.5, before applying the 2.4.35.rc5 patch! Hope that helps, maybe you can fix, because I cant post to kernel.org v2.4 tree, that I know of.
