Hi,
It would be great, if someone could generate a patch against 2.4.21 and
update the ftp.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/ports/ppc dir (or put it
anywhere else).
Thanks.
bye, Roman

well if your using powermac hardware no patch is really necessary.
unless you using very very new powermac hardware in which case you
need a benh patch from /pub/linux/kernel/people/benh/.

I want to synchronize the APUS tree and I usually use linuxppc_2_4 for
that. I can't use bk and the rsync tree is already at pre2.
BTW how different is linuxppc_2_5 from Linus' tree?

The linuxppc_2_5 tree is completely obsolete. You want the
linuxppc-2.5 tree, which is fairly close to Linus' tree. There are
some 4xx bits in there that I will send to Linus once I am happy with
the way we do things on the 440, plus some bits for some embedded 6xx
platforms that Tom checked in there recently.
The linuxppc_2_4 tree is also pretty much obsolete. There is now a
linuxppc-2.4 tree descended from Marcelo's linux-2.4 tree, which
should be used for any ongoing 2.4 development (which should
definitely be tapering off now).
Why do you want to work on 2.4.21 when any patch you submit will need
to be against Marcelo's latest version? There are substantial PPC
changes in Marcelo's 2.4.22-pre2.
Paul.

I still have local copies of the linuxppc_2_4 and linuxppc_2_4_devel rsync
trees while they were still at 2.4.21. I can generate patch, just drop me an
email.

A patch for linuxppc_2_4 would be great. Thanks.
