Hi Christoph - no, indeed we have not talked for a long long time.
Probably almost 10 years! Back in the heady days that I first
packaged Exim for Debian...

Its very easy actually some of our engineers run Debian.
Somehow I thought that would be the case. Engineers from almost
every hardware manufacturer I ever talk to say that. :-)
Using this kernel, the machine boots a little way so I must have done
*something* right, but I appear to have a console output problem,
since
console output stops after:
You need to add console=ttySG0 as a boot parameter. The newer
kernels no
longer use ttyS0 as a console.
Well, that's got me some way further, thanks. Care to mail me
your .config so that I can build a kernel that actually, erm,
works? :-)
