Before i begin to update to the most stable 2.4.19 kernel so i can make
use of iptables-1.2.7a and its bug fixes, could someone verify wether or
not the following steps, as i have planed, should be taken?

1. Download 2.4.19 tape of source to /usr/src
2. tar -vxf *2.4.19*.tar .
3. Go do the directory of rusty's p-o-m
4. Begin patching the kernel
5. Decompress, compile, install latest iptables
6.  Make a new kernel suitable for router

I am quite sure this is what i must do, but i do not wish for any screw
ups.  Thanks.
