Hi!! I was pretty new to embedded linux as well, but I can recommend you using 2.4 kernel. The 2.6 version is not fully adapted to V4 yet, since the ethernet drivers for the Xilinx EMAC hasn't been released, neither the ones for other specific devices.
I used 2.4_devel, and it works fine for me. My design for the FPGA is composed by an uart, the ethernet mac, i2c, ddr memory and interrupt controller, and the kernel 2.4 is ok making the corresponding modifications (adding xparameters.h and the other drivers generated by EDK). However, here are some patches for the kernel 2.6 on the ml403 and the Xilinx reference design: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/ See January and there are 9 patches that maybe are useful for you. I got it running on my ml403 board, but there is no network support for Xilinx yet, and that's why I recommended you the 2.4. Hope being helpful!
