The following blog entry talks about building 2.6.38 kernel: http://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2011/05/16/linux-2-6-38-on-efika-mx-smartbook/ I have been able to cross compile a kernel and install it, but I haven't been able to boot the machine with the new kernel. I built and installed a newer version of module-init-tools (3.16) on the machine, but maybe there are other rpms that need to be newer for this to work. -Will _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
