sufficiently convincing argument for the Debian Kernel Team to accept
it in Debian's v2.6.38,
Good news: one of my ARAnyMs will be compiling kernels for the next
full week or so, I think (CPU power provided by Thomas Goirand this
time, the other VMs run on boxen at tarent GmbH, if someone is in-

Why don't you cross-compile it? I just managed to rebuild your previous
build after I spent a day setting up a cross-compiler. Took only a couple of
hours.
3. If there's anything left that you really need, please tell us, so
"we" can get it in a good shape for v2.6.40.
Bad news: Christian T. Steigies has problems on real Amiga hardware:
However, the current (TLS) kernels have problems with the ariadne2 network
card, which, I think all Amigas here but crest have (ariadne1 in crest).
I get error messages like this with 2.6.32 and 2.6.38
eth0: mismatched read page pointers 4f vs 4c.
Does that ring a bell anywhere? That???s running 2.6.38-4 plus
my patches, I think, so I expect 2.6.38-5 won???t change this.
The network (zorro8390) worked with the kernel from Stephen's netinstall iso,
it was 2.6.26. I am trying to cross-build older kernel versions, maybe I can
locate the problem. However, now I have two new problems.
How do I get the older versions from Geert's git? I don't see any other
branches, I only see tags. What is the magic word to get for example the 2.6.30
tree?
When crosscompiling Geert's tree, shouldn't make ARCH=m68k be sufficient
(after setting up a propper .config)?
After creating a symlink to m68k-linux-gnu-gcc-4.4, this seems to work now:
make ARCH=m68k CROSS_COMPILE=m68k-linux-gnu-
It's been so long, is this the correct way to cross-build linux-m68k? I
should write that down somewhere...
