I would suggest 2.6.10 if you want an official kernel release.  Is this 
board generally available to people? 
Yes: www.microsys.de miriac Module: PM854 (and some others)
Be aware there are some infrastrucal changes I'm working on that moves 
the 85xx sub-arch support from using OCP to platform_device.  However, 
these have minor changes on the board files.
I've read your last mails in this list... therefore I am asking. :-)
I just don't want to re-invent the wheel twice. In the pm854 specific
things there are also some OCP updates. (Well, I am still reading lots 
of code... newland for me)
I try to contact the developer Josef Wagner at Microsys who was working
on the 2.4.26-sth.
I would take a look at how 2.6 is structured for 85xx.  I tried to do a 
better job and provide more common code for a board port to leverage.  
So for something like PCI, you should hopefully just have to setup your 
memory map and IRQ routing.
I am comparing 2.4.26-sth with 2.6.10 now. The changes are manageable as 
far as I got it. Where can I get the current work from you?!

Greets,

Clemens Koller
