q on patching the vanilla kernel in the SRPM

[lockhart at irtf.ifa.hawaii.edu]

So, I've installed the source rpm (kernel-2.4.7-10.src.rpm), and it dumped
a bunch of stuff into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES.  More than enough to
confuse me.  There are a wide variety of *.config files, there are 2.2.x
patches, 2.3.x patches, 2.4.0+ patches, even 2.4.8&9 patches, awk files, h
files, and a patch-2.4.7-ac3 file.

So how do I go about converting the kernel that came with this stuff over
to being a 2.4.7-10 kernel?  Just start patching 'til I've done 'em all?
