I need to bring up Linux 2.4 on an IBM 440GX evaluation board (Ocotea I
assume). It is supported on Linux 2.6.

What's my best option for doing this...

Somebody already has a patch for 2.4? :)

Backport the code from 2.6?

Enable 440GP compatibility mode and hack the existing 2.4 Ebony board
support?

Something else?
Clone linuxppc-2.4 and build using the Ocotea config? :)

Yes, it was a case of picking the right tree.

Thanks,
Phil
