gravedigg154:
Does anyone know a good site that has a good tutorial on how to make patches and how to code?
EDIT: Oh and I also want to know if it is bad if one hunk out of eleven fails.

bluebrother:
It is "bad" if one hunk fails, as this means a patch hasn't been applied completely. Which in turn means the source is modified partly and most probably broken.

For programming, I suggest you to just search the web and pick the guide that suits you best. As book I'd suggest "The C programming language" by Kernighan & Ritchie (but it's quite hard to read for a beginner). O'Reilly has some other nice books on that too.

scorche:
As for tutorials on how to make patches, we have one in the wiki page: SimpleGuideToCompiling

gravedigg154:
Thats not on how to make patches. It's on how to apply them. And Ill check those out bluebrother. Oh and what different languages does the iPod accept?
