A couple of comments:
- I haven't used 2.6 on TS boards, not sure what to tell you.
- I've compiled kernel 2.4.26-tsX many times, cross-compiled on my Debian PC.
Once you get the cross-compiler working, it's mostly just "make menuconfig"
and
"sh autobuilt_for_customer"
- It's important the kernel module matches the kernel. 2.4.26-ts9 and -ts11 are
not close enough, they need to match.
- I find it easiest to compile a whole kernel, and copy the kernel and
/lib/modules as a set.
- Trying to build one module and copy it over is do-able, but sometimes I have
been successful, and sometimes I haven't. Will probably need to tweak Makefile
at that module.
Good luck,
Joe
