[NTLUG:Discuss] second opinion needed - trying to follow instructions

[Richard]

What are the intended instructions of following paragraph? (oh, and I 
think the date is listed wrong next to that .diff file)

 From http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/#routes-2.6

routes-2.6.24-15.diff <http://www.ssi.bg/%7Eja/routes-2.6.24-15.diff> - 
March 3, 2005. Patch containing all following parts (applied in the same 
order), apply after disabling the IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED config option:
----

I've looked in the kernel .config file and I can't find this option.  A 
grep of  the linux kernel source files (2.6.24 and 2.6.24.3) shows that 
./arch/sh/configs/titan_defconfig contains..

CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED=y

The titan_defconfig  file mentions an Oct 2007 date and is associated 
with kernel 2.6.19-rc3.  What is that file and does it have any bearing 
on anything?   I can't find any *MULTIPATH_CACHED options set anywhere 
in the kernel code.

I've done everything I can think of and have DGD working properly on 
another host, but I've so far be unable to get this kernel to pick 
another route besides the first one listed.
