The problem is known and Cort replied me yesterday that he is working on
that. He said maybe in the next one or two versions it should be fixed.
AFAIK the latest working 2.3.X kernel was the 2.3.29 from
linuxcare.com.au.
All other higher kernel I got to build but not to boot.

Have you other experiences?
