No, the PPC MM changes in 2_4_devel rely on changes to the generic MM API that aren't yet in the kernel.org release. You could modify the appropriate files in arch/i386/mm/ and include/asm-i386/ to match if you like. -- Matt Porter MontaVista Software, Inc. mporter at mvista.com ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
