Ooh, good to know.
The phrase "the kernel we're working with" caught my
eye. Which kernel
are we talking about?
I'm specifically thinking of David Marlin's kernel as referenced here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/Fedora_ARM_Kernels
(I've heard but have not verified that the Kirkwood and OMAP
patch sets
used to be pretty much mutually-exclusive; I haven't tried to build a
unified kernel and hope this has been fixed).
Yuck. I know David has been endeavoring to make his changes mesh easily
with additional parties adding their own pet board to the SRPM. Most of
our systems are omap and tegra based so we haven't seriously looked into
kirkwood support. If somebody wants to add kirkwood support they should
bear in mind your warning about the broken uboot.
