Hi Matt,

arch/arm/mach-orion5x/ts78xx-setup.c has this diff:
(see Ts-7000 group message no 19846):
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=377304abefa208890dce5739e4f297c93240efb2

arch/arm/kernel/head.S has this added (ifdef to endif):
(see Ts-7000 group message no 18751):
beq __error_p @ yes, error 'p'
#ifdef CONFIG_MACH_TS78XX
ldr r1, =0x00000674 @ TS-7800 = 0x674
#endif
bl __lookup_machine_type @ r5=machinfo

I applied the Yaffs2 patch from www.yaffs.net, actual snapshot URL:

http://www.aleph1.co.uk/gitweb?p=yaffs2/.git;a=snapshot;h=refs/heads/aleph1-release-branch;sf=tgz

with a script that came with Yaffs:

./patch-ker.sh c m ../linux-2.6.36.3
