We certainly will consider donating a couple of boards. They are in a bit of short supply right now, so not sure yet when we'd be able to free a couple up. However, I'm not sure how having hardware would help to answer the questions I raised, as they are really about the architecture of the build system. I managed to resolve the third question I raised (compilation error), and have managed to build a working image for my board, using a ram filesystem. I'm now working on getting the squashfs filesystem working with our kernel. I've chosen to work with the 7.09 release of kamikaze for now, and have simply added my own kernel version to the workspace. I've added a patched-2.6.20 directory to target/linux/generic-2.6 and this allows me to control exactly which patches are applied against my kernel, but it seems wrong to have to modify the generic-2.6 folder to get what I want. If there is a way to accomplish this inside my target/linux/<my_platform> dir, that would seem a better way to go.
