Mainline does not. > For 2.4, I've had good success on two different boards using the v2pro and virtex4 parts with: http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~pml/uclinux_powerpc/ The kernel tarball there has support for various xilinx supplied peripheral cores.. The neat thing about this approach is that there is a uclinux BSP for the EDK that is used to generate an auto-config.in file which you then drop directly into the linux kernel tree. Even though it is about the microblaze rather than the PPC, a helpful "getting started" document is: http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~wu/downloads/uClinux_ready_Microblaze_design.pdf - aidan
