I need to install linux on a IBM RS6k 43P-140, unfortunately I can't find a ready-made "zimage" that my 140 can boot up from. I saw some patches (243-140) on the IBM site that supposed to fix this 140 problem. It says "...Apply these against the 2.4.3 kernels from the official PowerPC kernel source trees from fsmlabs.com" http://oss.software.ibm.com/developer/opensource/linux/projects/ppc/43p_140n otes.php Can anybody advise if this is what I should do: 1) Copy source trees from fsmlabs.com into a RS6k B50 running suse-ppc 7.0 2) Apply the 243-140 patch onto the source tree. 3) somehow compile the above together on the B50. A new zimage is produced. 4) dd the zimage into a floppy, and use it to boot the 43P-140. I've never compiled kernel before, so pls provide pointers on how to do this. thanks, azman
