Because, as i have told already in the past, prep didn't make the ARCH=powerpc switch upstream, so has to build with ARCH=ppc, so is using a different kernel flavour. > config/powerpc/powerpc.cfg has: > SUBARCHES = chrp # prep coff ppcbug Mmm, i don't know about this one, need to check, but my checked out tree is again in a messy state with load of conflicts. The SUBARCHES variable is only used for mkvmlinuz invocation though, and you cannot really make any conclusion about what is listed there. > Obviously prep used to be a subarch at this level together with chrp. > Looking at powerpc/prep.cfg, I see no reason why the old solution was > abandoned here. > > If a change does need to be made, it probably makes sense to rename the > current "powerpc" subarch to "chrp". > However, I think that the old setup is probably fine and that this is just > carelessness in the patch.

Go and ask Colin or someone else with a clue or look at the code, since it is clear you don't thrust me. Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
