      I am having issues applying the patch set (2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1) where
the patch fails for many files.

Here are the steps followed
1) Successfully installed 2.6.25-rc5 vanilla
2) Successfully applied patch 2.6.26-rc5-mm3 patch
3) Errors applying patch set 2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1-broken-out

# patch -p1 </tmp/2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1-broken-out.tar

Thanks in advance
