Is there not a README included with the patch? Should tell you how.

There are other ways instead of install a patch. Read the Ultra66 NHF at this site. It will work for the ATA100.

And another one here http://linux.nf/stepbystep.htm that I used for my Promise ATA100. Worked

You may be better off just ditching the Corel distro, and install one that has ATA66/100 support ...... like Mandrake 7.2.
