Hi.. I've been trying to get a 2.6.6 kernel going at my end... I first 
downloaded the stable 2.6 kernel from kernel.org, compiled it and tried 
booting. It gets to the white screen immediately after the boot prompt screen 
and stops... so it doesn't boot. I then searched and found the 2.6.6 kernel 
(from http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/kernel-source-2.6.6) with 
Debian patches for powerpc, downloaded it and tried compiling. I get the 
following error while doing a make modules:

  CC [M]  drivers/net/ns83820.o
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `drivers/net/tg3.c', needed by 
`drivers/net/tg3.o'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [drivers/net] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2

Is there another 2.6.6 kernel that I should be using? Or is there a way to get 
the kernel I obtained from kernel.org to boot? Please let me know.

Thanks,
nirmal
