OK. I saw the instructions. kbuild-2.5-2.4.17-1 says to patch against
the linus-2.4.17 kernel where as kbuild-2.5-2.4.16-ppc-2 says to patch
against the marcelo kernel. I did a search on google and found
Marcelo's directory of kernels. Are these specially patched kernels for
PPC or are they stock standard kernels. They "feel" like stock standard
kernels by looking at all the filenames.
Is it possible to patch against the ppc kernel tree from the penguinppc
site (actually I have previousl got mine via rsync from the Monta Vista
repository) ?
What about a stock standard kernel with a port patch ? eg. on
kernel.org there is a linux-2.4.15.tar.bz2 archive along with a
linux-ppc-patch-2.4.15.bz2. Unfortunately I can not find a 2.4.16 or
2.4.17 patch yet :(
Thanks for any advice,
Regards,
Brendan Simon.
