Thanks!
http://www.einval.com/debian/kernel-2.6.18-sam.tar.gz has all the bits you'll need. The kernel is as standard, except the patch (as in #419482) and the slightly changed config (included). It's running fine on 3 cats-based buildds now, so I expect it should work for you. Shout if you have any problems, of course. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
