It's in pretty bad shape right now.  If you are interested in helping, I
have some initial patches that fix simple 403 vs 405 differences.

I'm trying to run linux on a board with a 403GCX processor on it. I ran into
an error while trying to compile the kernel as follows:

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:83: Error: unsupported relocation type
{standard input}:84: Error: unsupported relocation type
{standard input}:111: Error: unsupported relocation type
{standard input}:128: Error: unsupported relocation type

make[1]: Leaving directory `/d/ctemp/src/src-linuxppc_2_4/arch/ppc/kernel'
make: *** [_dir_arch/ppc/kernel] Error 2

While searching the archives I found a thread which mentioned that that
kernel no longer compiles for the 403 processor and there was no mention of
a solution to the problem. Which version of the kernel should work on the
403GCX? Thanks for your help.
