Yes I did check that I believe, it built properly after doing so, but
I am not able to complete my full build as of yet due to other build
issues.

I am a VERY new beginner in all of this and would love to learn how to
do it all properly as I have found a few recipes that I want to build
but have issues. I will figure out how to do what your saying properly
and send in the patch.

Do I need to put my recipe back to the original in OE first before
making the patch? If this is way off you can just tell me to search on
google. Thanks for taking the time to let me know though I appreciate
it.

Jeremy
