Why don't you cross-compile it? I just managed to rebuild your previous build after I spent a day setting up a cross-compiler. Took only a couple of hours. > > 3.

That???s running 2.6.38-4 plus > my patches, I think, so I expect 2.6.38-5 won???t change this. The network (zorro8390) worked with the kernel from Stephen's netinstall iso, it was 2.6.26. I am trying to cross-build older kernel versions, maybe I can locate the problem. However, now I have two new problems. How do I get the older versions from Geert's git? I don't see any other branches, I only see tags. What is the magic word to get for example the 2.6.30 tree? When crosscompiling Geert's tree, shouldn't make ARCH=m68k be sufficient (after setting up a propper .config)? After creating a symlink to m68k-linux-gnu-gcc-4.4, this seems to work now: make ARCH=m68k CROSS_COMPILE=m68k-linux-gnu- It's been so long, is this the correct way to cross-build linux-m68k? I should write that down somewhere...
