I need to ask you a stupid question: I need to install the kernel debug to linux kernel. I download the kernel Patch. I don't know how to install it. In the instruction, it only says: "apply a kgdb patch to a linux kernel source". My question is HOW? What action should I take? Could anyone tell me what "apply ... to..." means here. Generally, 'Apply' means you need to fill a form, and submit the form to someone, I don't see how? here:-( Please tell me the exactly commands. Thanks in advance, Ya
