We are obliged to dump the old kernels because after the merge OE/Yocto only kernels after 2.6.32 are supported. Older always lacked something to properly work with udev or did not implement core features like devtmpfs, lzma/xz, ... The best we (zaurus developers/survivors) can do is having a working linux 3.x kernels able to boot the rootfs produced with the new oe-core toolchains. I don't have freetime to do more than that and lacking the necessary kernel knowledge to write patches by myself I can just test and report. Regards Andrea
