No problems here, 2.2.15 and pre16-3 vanilla, with bootx(1.2b1). I don't boot from MESH, I use my adaptec 2940UW. The same with dev kernels... make pmac_config make menuconfig (enable some eth dev's, disable parport and dos fs) make vmlinux make modules make modules_install put it to MacOS, reboot with 2.2.15, it still runs.... I know, not very helpful. Andreas ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
