I have a bug assigned to me: http://handhelds.org/~bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1567
Basically, mmc/sd does not work out-of-the-box on familiar 0.8.4 because the right modules (which are installed) do not have an autoload modutils file associated to them. Well, easy enough. Modify the bb file to supply the right modutils file. But...Now the real reason that the module was not autoloaded in the first place. The stinky old 2.4 kernel mmc code does not like two mmc modules loaded at the same time. So autoloading the h3900 model breaks the use of mmc/sd in h5400. Wanting my cake and eating it too, I need to formulate a way to only install the right module for a particular architecture. I AM NOT going to split h5400 from h3900. Don't even consider it. So I thought maybe I would just augment initscripts to have a script which did an ipkg remove <package> if the architecture is not right by reading /proc/cpuinfo. That doesn't seem like the right place unless I play with bootmisc.sh. Anyhow, that is the jist. I want to do this, but I am not sure about the implementation that is 'right' or straightforward for distributions to do this. I am willing to explore modifying the kernel source. But I want to see if this path shakes out first.
