remember where it originally came from but I would be glad to provide a
copy. I even have a kernel with a built-in installer which I used to
get my 8100 running.
You know, that would probably be a violation of the kernel GPL you offering
the kernel without the sources and config file for it :)
Seriously, if we will add official debian support for the nubus machines, we
need to be able to build such a kernel from the debian package. Right now i
have a (rather old) patch to 2.4.27 from the nubus project, and a
configuration file which was suggested to me by someone from the nubus
project.
Please try it out, and if it fails, we can fix it or something, but some
random binary kernel from some random place is hardly going to be usefull in
the long run.
