Hello,
I have searched the arhives and didn't seem to find what I'm looking
for. I currently am in the process of porting linux to a custom PPC
Quad board. I downloaded a 2.5 kernel from FSMlabs in December and
have had success getting 2 processors to come up. However, I could not
get 3 or 4. I am considering going to the 2.4 latest kernel on the
FSMlabs bitkeeper site. I'm wondering if the version of the 2.5 kernel
I downloaded works with more then duals and also if I should instead
download the 2.4 kernel and us it? I know that eventually I am going to
have to go to 2.4 but I would like to show some success before
abandoning the 2.5 version I've worked so hard to get. If I in the
incorrect mailing list I apologize. I'm fairly new to the Linux kernel
development world!
Thanks for all the help
Eddy

Yesterday it was fixed just code for multicpu over 2 in smp.c and irq.c.
Try again linuxppc_2_3.
but I don't have multicpu over 2,so i cannot check it.
