How comes you can use gziped data as input to patch?

$ cd linux-2.4.20-8
$ zcat /some/where/patch-2.4.20-mh18.gz |patch -p1

That tells patch to ignore the first directory, and tells it to assume to be
in the correct directory (which is true because you cd'ed in there in the f=
irst
place).

Assuming you get your kernel from your distribution maker (RedHat I saw in =
the
archives) it should be already configured. If not, do a menuconfig first, t=
hen
run :
$ make dep clean bzImage modules modules_install
$ cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-8-bluez-issc

and add it to your bootloader menu (lilo I guess).

=46rom your other message, you seem to have been able to put it in the 'up'
state. How ddid you do that (yeah, hciconfig hci0 up), but apart that?
Mine refuses to go up, and it even has no BT address... :-/
