I hope this is the right place to ask. My apologise if it's wrong.
I have found 2.4.25-low-latency.patch.gz for the 2.4.25 kernel but I 
couldn't find preemptible patch for this version of kernel.
I found preempt-kernel-rml-2.4.23-pre5-1.patch and 
preempt-kernel-rml-2.4.26-pre5-1.patch which are pretty close but not 
exactly for the same version.

Could anybody please help me with this.

Thank you

Dmytro

Why would you run 2.4 if you need low latency?  Any recent 2.6 kernel
will blow that out of the water.

That's not a problem, they will work. But you should not use 2.4.25, but
rather 2.4.31 or even 2.4.32-preX, several security vulnerabilities and
bugs have been fixed since, and the code has not changed much, so most of
those patches still apply without a glitch.

You can also check in my tree, there are several updated patches + the glue
needed for them to apply correctly when needed, it may save you some time :
