Re: I made a Success of it!

Congratulations!!

It is my understanding that the RT patch is actually applied to the kernel
source, so if you want to compile a new kernel all you need to do is start
at the "make xconfig" step to build the configuration file with the changes
you want and then do the various make commands.
