Hey Ben,

I got it working.  Thanks for your input.  It's really helpful knowing
that your on the right track even if your not quite there yet.

Here's the kernel I am using (the latest from rsync).
 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a
Linux dev1 2.4.19-pre8-ben0 #1 SMP Mon May 6 16:40:29 EDT 2002 ppc
unknown
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

As it turns out there was a problem with CONFIG_ACORN_PARTITION and
CONFIG_SMP.  Linux would compile with CONFIG_ACORN_PARTITION defined
without CONFIG_SMP but when I added CONFIG_SMP I got a link error.

I also found that the following modules would not compile with
CONFIG_SMP defined:
        -CONFIG_UFS_FS
        -CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV
        -CONFIG_NET_SCHED

later,
Andy
