This directory contains the latest IA-64 support patches for Linux.
For patches relative to the stable kernel, look in the v2.4 directory.
For potentially unstable development patches, look in v2.5.

The patches are intended to be applied on top of Linus's official
tree.  For example, the patch:

	linux-2.4.14-ia64-011105.diff.gz

should be applied on top of linux-2.4.14.tar.gz.  To do this, extract
the tar ball, then cd into the "linux" directory and apply the patch
with:

	zcat linux-2.4.14-ia64-0111105.diff.gz | patch -p1
