Better notes about mkpatch not working on 2.3 kernels

64	64	files in /usr/local/include, this will probably go wrong. See below on
65	65	how to fix this.
	66
	67	NOTE: option 3 only works with 2.2 and 2.4 (2.4.0 and later) kernels;
	68	option 1 and 2 also work with 2.3 kernels.

241	244	There is a special script which should be able to generate diffs against
242		any 2.2 or 2.4 kernel. Note that 2.3 kernels are no longer supported for
243		this compilation option (choose option 1 instead). Please report any
244		problems to our mailinglist. Note that it may fail, and probably silently,
245		if you have applied other patches to your kernel tree, or for very new kernels.
246		It is safe to run it if your kernel already has the lm_sensors drivers.
247		It will only work if you applied the i2c patches first.
	245	any 2.2 or 2.4 kernel (2.4.0 or later). Note that 2.3 kernels are no
	246	longer supported for this compilation option (choose option 1 instead).
	247	Please report any problems to our mailinglist. Note that it may fail,
	248	and probably silently, if you have applied other patches to your kernel \
	249	tree, or for very new kernels. It is safe to run it if your kernel
	250	already has the lm_sensors drivers. It will only work if you applied the
	251	i2c patches first.
248	252
249	253	Only a subset of the modules in lm_sensors are patched into the

23	23	but you may need to download it separately at:

	25
25	26	Kernels 2.3.34 and later, and all 2.4.x kernels, contain the
26	27	new I2C package; however, you may still need to download and install
27	28	the latest I2C version if lm_sensors does not compile.
