Kyle,

Put the config file in your linux source tree and name it ".config".  You can 
then do "make menuconfig" and this will allow you to make changes as needed.

For "CROSS_COMPILE" if your cross compiler is already in your path then you 
just need to put the prefix.  If the compiler is not in your path then you need 
to put the path + prefix in CROSS_COMPILE.

For example if your compiler is:
/usr/local/opt/crosstool/arm-linux/gcc-3.3.4-glibc-2.3.2/bin/arm-linux-gcc
(which is the default if you got this from the embeddedarm.com web site)

you would set:
CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/opt/crosstool/arm-linux/gcc-3.3.4-glibc-2.3.2/bin/arm-linux-

note that the "gcc" was intentionally left off.

You also need to set ARCH = arm in the Makefile.

good luck getting 2.6 running.

- Doug

Hi Brett.  These patches look great.

I'd love to get the 2.6 kernel booting, but I'm having trouble compiling the 
kernel for the 
TS7400 platform.  I downloaded the 2.6.19 kernel source, applied the patches 
successfully, then hit a wall.  This is what I've done so far:

1. Download kernel source from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/
linux-2.6.19.tar.bz2

2. Download patches and config file from Brett's link.

2. Unzip the source: tar -xjvf linux-2.6.19.tar.bz2

3. Unzip the patches: tar -xzvf [patch filename]

4. Apply patches from the root directory of the kernel source tree: patch -p0 < 
[patch 
filename]

Now what should I do with the config file?  I already have crosstool configured 
according 
to linuxarm-guide-rev2.2.pdf (supplied by TS ftp server).  Also, do I have to 
edit the 
CROSS_COMPILE setting in the main Makefile to point to the directory where 
crosstool is 
installed?  Or are you guys compiling the kernel on the TS7400 itself?  Any 
other little 
things that are assumed but not have not been explicitly mentioned here?

Thanks,
Kyle Vogt
