My patches to kernel 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3

That is a patch to allow:

SiS SATA 0182 support at the startup (I do not have an IDE hard drive to boot my Linux)
SiS Ethernet 0190 module driver
SiS 5513 IDE DMA support

Problem:
On original Fedora kernel there is no support on [sata_sis] module to the model 182 and it is not loaded at boot time.
There is no module to the SiS Ethernet controller model 190/191.
And there is no support to DMA on the SiS IDE controller model 5513.

Approach:
Apply all patches that I published, and apply to that situation, and modify the spec file to cope with the rpm kernel generation.

Remarks:
You should read and apply the partial patches already published, as follows:
sata_sis
sis190
sis5513

1. Get and install the kernel source that applies:
2.6.12-1.1381_FC3

2. Apply the above mentioned patches on the Remarks:

3. Script to pre-change all [.config] files:

Approach:
I prefer this script rather to create patches. I think it is more clear to understand what is going on here.
Basically I instruct the kernel to:

3.1. Add the SCSI support as a kernel internal instead of a loadable module:
CONFIG_SCSI=y
3.2. Add the SATA SCSI support for SiS as an internal:
CONFIG_SCSI_SATA_SIS=y
3.3. Add a NEW line to include the new driver, as a loadable module, for SiS Ethernet controller model 190/191 (that has no conterparter on this kernel).
CONFIG_SIS190=m

3.4. The script:

### /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/make-config.sh ###
cat > /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/make-config.sh << __END__
#!/bin/bash
# Please note that this script do NOT check if the [.config] was already patched
#
find /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/ -name "*.config" -print | while read FILE
do
mv \${FILE} \${FILE}.orig
cat \${FILE}.orig | sed -e "s/\(CONFIG_SCSI=\)./\1y/" -e "s/\(CONFIG_SCSI_SATA_SIS=\).*/\1y/" -e "s/\(CONFIG_SIS900=m\)/\1\nCONFIG_SIS190=m/" > \${FILE}
done
__END__
chmod 700 /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/make-config.sh
### /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/make-config.sh ###

Note: Note that this script do NOT check if the files were already patched.

3.5. Executing the scritp, JUST ONCE:

/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/make-config.sh

4. Patch the kernel spec file:

4.1. Patch file:

### /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/kernel-2.6.spec.patch ###

4.2. Applying the patch:

cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/
patch -p1 < kernel-2.6.spec.patch

5. Making the RPMs from spec:

cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/

5.1. Clean previous build (do NOT forget this):

rpmbuild --clean kernel-2.6.spec ### clean all

5.2. Build all for your platform, it may be one of them so please take the one that applies to you:

# rpmbuild -ba --target=i586 kernel-2.6.spec ### to install from a CD
# rpmbuild -ba --target=i686 kernel-2.6.spec ### I use this one
# rpmbuild -ba --target=x86_64 kernel-2.6.spec ### AMD64

Note: Of course there are more options, but for a regular user these ones above must cover most of the cases.

5.3. Take time to see a film, read a book or something else, because it will take long (from 2 to 3 hours).

6. Install the new kernel, that will be written at: [/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/], in my case:

rpm -Uvhi /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i686/kernel-2.6.12-1.1381_FC3sis.i686.rpm
rpm -Uvhi /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i686/kernel-smp-2.6.12-1.1381_FC3sis.i686.rpm

7. Test it and adjust the GRUB configuration to boot with the new kernel (if it wasn't already done), it is at: [/etc/grub.conf]

8. Say thanks if it works or what goes wrong :-).

Please always address to my hardware, os and kernel patching general procedures before posting a question.
