Boris.

I ran through this tonight, and I did get it working and installed, so thank you. :)

If I can make a couple suggestions?

1. Provide a downloadable patch file and and example showing how to use patch for those who might be less familiar with it.

2. After compile and install, disable the epel repo as it triggers these errors:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had to change /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo to 'enabled=0' and then run 'yum clean all && yum update' to get yum running again.

These are small issues though, and I'd vote for a reference in Pasi's tutorial as an option against compiling from source (though I'd leave that option in place).

I would like to use this to add myoung's kernel as an option in pxdi, if that is ok with you.
