ANS Patches en route to the 2.2.x kernel?

Just another bit of good news:

v2.2.4 is up on 
ftp://hellfire.dusers.drexel.edu/pub/linuxppc/v2.2.4
And soon will be finished uploading to 
ftp://linuxppc.cs.nmt.edu/pub/linuxppc/patches/ans/v2.2.4

And the good news is that it seems that if you give it
a 'root=/blah' argument during bootup, it'll boot from
the internal scsi chain (at least it does so for us).

The file listing:

	patches.tgz - The files changed in the source tree (from vger)
	linux-pmac-2.2.1.ans.tgz - The modified source tree
	vmlinux(_2.2.4) - The compiled kernel
