So how do I set this up correctly? I think your quilt is set up correctly. The rejects probably come from the patch queue being based on a different version than 2.6.26-rc5. Which patchset did you use? What I do when wanting a patch queue for a specific kernel is to search for commit message indicating the rebase for this version. There is a "Rebase to linux-2.6.26-rc5" on http://repo.or.cz/w/ext4-patch-queue.git So the corresponding snapshot http://repo.or.cz/w/ext4-patch-queue.git?a=snapshot;h=ed6aaac3b0cc0ba47dbb2af0884306584271e5a2;sf=tgz patches 2.6.26-rc5 smoothly. (the last patchset also applies, with offset and fuzz, though) -- solofo
