Hi,

there seems to be quite a lot of individual work on 2.6.x kernels so 
I thought it would be a good idea to focus various segments of code 
and knowlege into creating a generic 2.6 kernel for all 72xx boards.

The overall aim being to produce kernel , patchset .config and 
modules tarballs to post the list.

If possible it should support all NAND/NOR flash types and SD cards 
from the kernel tree , hence gnu-ts kernel (and gnuts to proprietory 
closed source modules).

It would seem a good idea to start from a recent kernel unless there 
is are any show stoppers.

I'm looking at 2.6.25 where one issue is the disappearance of 
read_inode that affects yaffs2 . This appears to be fixed here but I 
have not yet verified locally:

If anyone has any particular reason recommend the use this or other 
2.6.x as a base please post comments.

best regards,

jacques.
