I did have 2.4.18 running fairly stable, but it froze from time to time, so I went back to 2.2.20. I finished the build of 2.4.20 from CVS (competing against gcc-snapshot). It is available at: http://people.debian.org/~cts/debian-m68k/kernel-image/ Untested, since I do not have physical access to my box for a few more days. This kernel-image includes devfs support, I assume you need to install some support packages before it works, did not have much luck with that on i386 yet, but I did not try too hard. Please test. Comments about the config are welcome. I will try to build a mac image next (since I have a mac waiting at home). If that works out, atari is next. Then maybe VME, but I guess I'd prefer it if Nick did this, since I have no idea about VME. I guess I should create a kernel-patch package... Christian
