But I'm starting to see so problems and I want to work with a recent kernel tree. I'm using a PPC405GPr processor. I downloaded the linux-2.4.32 tree from kernel.org, but it has none of the Xilinx stuff so I immediately wonder about other things it lacks for embedded PPC. I downloaded the linux 2.4 .git tree from Denx, but the makefile in top says it's based on 2.4.25, which is even older then what I've got now. I've looked on the penguinppc.org page, but it points me back to the kernel.org distribution and possibly the bk repository. Hmm... So what tree is most universally accepted as current so far as embedded PPC goes? And can the penguinppc.org pages be updated to reflect the consensus? -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, http://www.icarus.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep."
