Warning: I'm guessing here!
Actually I got this from the list so thanks goes out to other
member of the list. See where I put the note above (***), that's
where I add my patches. First I'd take a look at the kernel-2.6.spec
and find the last patch. Just before:
# END OF PATCH DEFINITIONS
I'd add something like:
Patch19999: my-patchfile.patch
Then a little later in the file:
#%patch10004 -p1
%patch199999 -p1
# END OF PATCH APPLICATIONS
So, instead of issuing a command like -
Example Only -
patch -p1 < /usr/src/device-mapper.1.01.05/patches/linux-2.4.28-pre4-devmapper-ioctl.patchYou would add it to the spec file to be automatically included when you did the ' rpmbuild -bp --target=i686 kernel-2.6.spec'
I might figure all this stuff our after all.....

Then I'd put my patch file in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/ and
continue the process. Just make sure that your patch isn't
already in there.
I hope that helps.
