Xavier. Could you send me the .config of the kernel you use ? Do you have to enable anything special for the G5 (i suppose that there is a G5 processor option, like there is a power3 and power4 one, but you cannot use the 60x/75x/74xx option). I will probably use the -benh tree for future official debian kernels (as soon as Benh has done a proper 2.4.24 tag on his 2.4 tree as he promised), and upload a power3 and power4 config in addition to the powerpc ones, so i guess that adding a G5 config if needed would be ok too. This would double the compile time though, i suppose. This are all 32 bit kernels though, i suppose you use a 32 bit kernel yourself, or do you use a 64 bit kernel, and if so, what toolchain do you use to build it ? Friendly, Sven Luther
