                    hi all
   
 I have powerpc 604 and MVME 3604 and I want to run the linux 2.4.18 on that platform.
 
 
 So i follow the following instruction to compile 2.4.18 for powerpc604
 
 
 
   Install crosstool for the  powerpc604 (from kegel.com) in /opt/crosstool
  
   Then i download 2.4.18 kernel.   
  3. then i go to kernel source   directory and run make ARCH=ppc xconfig
4. then make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-604-linux-gnu- dep bzImage
5. i found following  images in my   kernel source directory    
i.e   <home>/linux/2.4.18/arch/ppc/boot/images

                  vmlinux
       
                  zImage.chrp
       
                  vmlinux.coff
       
                  zImage.pmac
       
                  zImage.prep






          
  Now What is the step to boot with this images ?
 which is the main image to boot ?
 whether it will give me command prompt?
 I am using tornado for interfacing with powerpc (PPC604)
