Are you sure about this? I downloaded pre-patch-2.1.99-1 and applied
to 2.1.98 and then applied mtrr-patch-v1.16 without any problems. This
is what did to produce mtrr-patch-v1.17, so I'm sure it works.
Can you try this again? Are you sure you had a clean 2.1.98 source
tree?

[other problems]

Did you do a make config, followed by a make dep;make clean ?

No, don't do that. 2.1.98 is broken. You could also try
mtrr-patch-v1.17 which fixes a spurious warning message. It happens to
have been produced against 2.1.99-pre1.
