trouble with patching on vmware

(1/5) > >>

cheesecake:
I have the patch I want, I've configured vmware correctly, it builds fine, but i can't figure out where to put the patch file.

Do i put it in the root of where i installed vmware, build directory, where???

I've also tried all info on compiling, searched forums, but nothing seemed to help.

Basically, stick it in the root of the source and follow the instructions above.

cheesecake:
Problem.

I can't figure out where the heck the source folder is.
I tried to navigate using search, tried in vmware to go to hard drive to save there, but no luck. How do i stick it in the source, when the source doesn't exist???

Never Mind, got it fixed, vmware directed me when i tried to build it.

however, when i typed in the build directory (in vmware) : "patch goban.diff" (without quotations), it didn't do anything, even though it sat for a few minutes. Also, i can't find the build directory using the path vmware provided.

PaulPosition:
Go back and re-read what's in the wiki. Compare with what you've written above.

Hint : there's a '

AlexP:
If you used svn to download the source, then following those instructions the source will be in ~/rockbox

Put the patch file in there (not in the directory you are building in, which should be a subdirectory of the rockbox directory mentioned above), and re-read the instructions in the link I posted.  As PaulPosition says you have the command wrong.
