I am running an FC3 system, with $ uname -r 2.6.9-1.667 Now, I have downloaded and compiled the vanilla 2.6.9 Kernel source from kernel.org. The question is ... can I get a source patch file that upgrades from 2.6.9 ---> 2.6.9-1.667? I see the SRPMS directory with Fedora's kernel source RPM, but I am reluctant to download that through my modem as well. The reason I am wanting this is there seems to be a problem with no SElinux context labels within the /dev/shm & /dev/pts pseudo file-trees, causing messages and failures to be spat out at me when booting the kernel.org kernel. Bear in mind that I've also unpacked the initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img file, replaced the /lib/*.ko files, and repacked it to a different file, and altered grub.conf for all the above, and ensured my modules got installed to a different /lib/modules tree. [the good news is that it continues and even starts the X server allowing me to work "normally"].
