I had the same failure with these patches and investigated
the failure in detail. The part of the patch that fails is
removing some debug code from the timer interrupt routine.
The version of linx that we have already has this code removed.
The kernel that is built with these pathces will run okay.
I don't think anyone has mentioned this but Red Hat Linux 5.2 is
available from http://www.cheapbytes.com for about $5.00. The
shipping is another $5.00. There is no support available for
this version but if you are cheap this is a good place to get it.
