I must admit that when moving to rc5 I only build openrd-client, not base.
I'll look into it later today or otherwise tomorrow.

Then again I sincerely doubt that the right patches are applied.
Two examples from your txt doc:

patching file drivers/macintosh/smu.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 85.
Hunk #2 succeeded at 150 with fuzz 2 (offset 14 lines).
Hunk #3 FAILED at 239.
Hunk #4 FAILED at 493.
Hunk #5 succeeded at 574 with fuzz 2 (offset 23 lines).
3 out of 5 hunks FAILED -- rejects in file drivers/macintosh/smu.c


patching file drivers/net/pcmcia/smc91c92_cs.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 559.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- rejects in file drivers/net/pcmcia/smc91c92_cs.c

I strongly doubt that an openrd patch would touch a macintosh or pcmcia driver.

While I'll have a go at it, I suggest you clean out your tmp dir and try again

It seems the bad patch is penrd-base-enable-pcie.patch
Can't look at that one right now.

Meanwhileyou can also set DEFAULT_PREFERENCE to -1, that will give you
the rc1 kernel.
