I'm not Ralf, but I gave your patch a quick once-over anyway for the hell of it. I see a lot of duplicated code, esp in arch/mips/idt-boards and the network drivers. Is it possible to have a kernel capable of booting on all IDT boards? Could such a kernel detect what board it's actually running on - or enough elements of the board configuration to provide more generic drivers? -- Robin Hugh Johnson E-Mail : robbat2@orbis-terrarum.net Home Page : http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=people.robbat2 ICQ# : 30269588 or 41961639 GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
