Hey Dan,

We just got done getting the 2.2.13 running on the RPX-lite.  We had to
add CONFIG_ENET_SCC2 to its config to make it work.  Thanks for the
update!

BTW: have you compiled any of these with CONFIG_MODULES turned on?  We've
tried with a couple of different kernels and generally get syntax errors
from ppc_ksyms.c and, after fixing those, we get a bunch of unresolved
symbols from kernel.o .  We didn't dig very deep on this, we were just
curious if it would work...apparently not. ;-)

I'm wondering if anyone else has played with this?

Oh well, we'll just go back to a static kernel and work from there, no big
deal.

Thanks Again,
-Mark
