2.1.106: "CRC Error, System Halted"

This builds on my k5/non-SMP/pci/ide/ppp box, but pulls a
CRC error on boot. I repeated the patch and build process in various
ways, including pulling down the .gz patch instead of the .bz2 patch.
I also rebuilt 2.1.105 to check my tools and methods: no problems
there.

I finally automated the patch-and-build after typing all this
a few hundred times or so:

#!/bin/bash
#kmake: patch if given, and make kernel
set -v
cd /usr/src
case $1 in
patch-*.gz) zcat $1 | patch -p0;;
esac
cd linux || exit 1;
find . -name "*.rej" -exec sh -c "echo REJECTS; kill 0" \;
find . -name "*.orig" -exec rm \{\} \;
find . -size 0 -exec rm \{\} \;
make oldconfig && make dep && make clean && make zlilo && make modules &&
make modules_install
