Most recently (apart from trying the doomed 2.3.37) I have been using
2.3.18 (from ftp://linuxppc.cs.nmt.edu/pub/linuxppc/embedded) on
custom 860T hardware. As you may have gathered from my earlier post
on 1999-11-29, all has not been going smoothly. Although I have now
coaxed 2.3.18 as far as trying to load the initrd, it has been an uphill
struggle all the way and I still haven't got the compressed bootloader
going properly. Could it be that my problems stem from using 2.3.18?
