A couple of questions regarding building linux for PPC405GP, below.

Is there anyway to FTP this kernel without having to use BitKeeper or
rsync (ie, they're blocked by firewall)?  I've got 2.4.18 with PPC
relevant patches - is that sufficient?

I've been unable to find any files that support the PPC405GP ethernet
driver (the MAL stuff).  Does this support exist, and if so what is the
file that implements it?  I see that there is a config file in 2.4.18
for the Walnut boards, so I assume there must be onboard ethernet support
somewhere (or is this only supported by add-on PCI boards?).
