Sorry for the delay, I was in IETF conference last week and I was quite
busy. I think you did not receive any reply, so here we go:
So the actual kernel version is 2.6.13.1, not 2.6.13. You can find it e.g.
from the link below (use of a closer mirror is highly recommended:
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.13.1.tar.bz2
Extract it with "tar xvjf"
If you download the latest hipl e.g. from the nighly tarball:
http://hipl.hiit.fi/hipl/hipl.tar.gz
You can extract it with "tar xvzf" and see the following patches:
hipl:~/projects/hipl--main--2.6/patches/beet$ ls
beet-patch-2.6.13.1 beet-ph-patch-v1.0-2.6.15.6 interfamily-2.6.14.2
beet-patch-2.6.14.2 interfamily-2.6.13.1
So, you need to do the following:
cd /where/you/extracted/the/linux-2.6.13.1
patch -p1 <
/where/you/extracted/hipl--main--2.6/patches/beet/beet-patch-2.6.13.1
patch -p1 <
/where/you/extracted/hipl--main--2.6/patches/beet/interfamily-2.6.13.1
and also these:
patch -p1 <
/where/you/extracted/hipl--main--2.6/patches/beet/policy-sleep-2.6.13.1-v5.patch
patch -p1 <
/where/you/extracted/hipl--main--2.6/patches/kernel/ipv6_addr_del.patch.2.6.14.4.slavov
Then recompile your kernel. You usually need a .config file. Usually there
are some examples in "/boot/config*". Remember to read
linux-2.6.13.1/README to understand the details of linux kernel
compilation. There should be also some (distribution optimized) HOWTOs in
the web also.
