Hello,

Actually i don't know but i think that git command is used to get Linux
2.6.28.4 and the tarball that you sent have the required Linux version,so
it should work but i am not sure.

I have a question
which link have you used to download from all these below links?

linux-2.6.28.4.tar.bz2
<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.28.4.tar.bz2>
