precompiled 2.2.10 kernel available

[Paul Mackerras]

I have put a precompiled 2.2.10 powermac kernel on dev.linuxppc.org
and on samba.anu.edu.au (accessible only from within Australia).  This
kernel works on the iMac and should work on the blue&white G3
powermac, although I haven't been able to test it directly myself.

The source for this kernel is available as a .tar.gz file on the two
ftp servers or by anonymous rsync from
samba.anu.edu.au::linux-pmac-stable.  (My current 2.3.6 tree is
available by anon rsync at samba.anu.edu.au::linux-pmac-devel.)

*NOTE:* This kernel includes Linus' USB stack, which (in my version)
translates the USB keycodes to ADB keycodes.  If you have an iMac, or
a B&W G3 with a USB keyboard, comment out (or change) the KEYTABLE
definition in /etc/sysconfig/keyboard so that your init scripts don't
load a USB keymap.

The relevant files are in ftp://dev.linuxppc.org/users/paulus or
ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/linux-pmac/.  They are:

In kernel-binary/v2.2.10:
   vmlinux			kernel binary (ELF)
   vmlinux.gz			gzipped version of vmlinux
   System.map			symbol table for vmlinux
   modules-2.2.10.tar.gz	kernel modules, unpack in /
   dot.config			.config file used to build vmlinux
