Well, the names are powerpc and powerpc-smp. The pmac/chrp/chrp-rs6k/prep variants are not different configuration files, but different image formats built from the same configuration. In fact they share the same modules (kernel-modules-2.4.22-powerpc and -powerpc-smp) as well as udebs. Friendly, Sven Luther
