I built a dp264 specific kernel and its working fine on an XP1000 (EV67 arch). Just built a generic kernel (as that's probably a more important test) and that is also working fine on the XP1000. I also built a titan specific kernel to test on an ES45 (SMP EV68 arch) but that OOPSes early in the boot process with a kernel null pointer access. I suspect that has nothing to do with your patches as I have a recollection that I have seen that OOPS before. So I tried the same generic kernel that I have running on the XP1000 but that fails to unpack at the initial boot stage (!) with: aboot> 9 aboot: loading uncompressed vmlinuz.test... aboot: loading compressed vmlinuz.test... aboot: Can't load kernel. Memory at fffffc0000310000 - fffffc0000f45df7 (PHDR 0) is Busy (Reserved) unzip: invalid exec header aboot> Cheers, Michael.
