watch the output of the patch...
You'll normally see what applies / what doesn't. I normally log all patch output and then read it later. :)

OK- A dumb question. Will a "generic"(kernel.org) kernel work with Centos 4? My reason for asking- I'm needing to upgrade from RH9, and would rather go ahead and go with 4 for the 2.6 kernel, but I need a patched kernel (Win4Lin), and I'm not sure they will offer a prepatched version (though they probably will for EL4).
I have not tried this on Centos 4 but on the -3 series, the kernel would boot fine, but I couldn't get XFree to run. I did not research it very far, but I'm guessing it had to do with the patches. Do you have the option of attempting to apply the patch(es) you need to the Centos 4 kernel to see if it will apply?
