That's the source you want to use for mips kernels. For 2.4, you'll need to checkout the linux_2_4 tag, otherwise HEAD will give you 2.6 source. If you are using a setup that relies on -mcpu, I'd look more at changing the setup to use something else, since -mcpu is deprecated in gcc for mips for all newer toolchains from 3.3 and beyond. --Kumba -- "Such is oft the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere." --Elrond
