I still find ketchup the easiest solution:

Here's a cut and paste of what I did.  The commands that I did was as
follows:

1) mkdir tmp
2) cd tmp
3) ketchup -r -G -f 2.6.14

# comment
#   -r is rename the directory
#   -G is to not verify against PGP keys
#   -f is to force downloading a tar ball instead of using linux-2.6.13.tar.bz2
#      and patch against it.

4) cd .
5) head Makefile
6) ketchup -r -G 2.6.14.1

# comment
#   here I removed the -f since I now want to patch

7) cd .
8) head Makefile
9) ketchup -r -G 2.6.14.5
10) cd .
11) head Makefile
12) ketchup -r -G 2.6.15
13) cd .
14) head Makefile

It's as easy as that.  The above commands put me through 4 different
versions of Linux.  And the "cd ." and "head Makefile" was only done to
show that ketchup worked.
