It is already ported to most known mpc8xx devices. You should start off, going 
through the archives of this mailing-list, and visit this site:
http://www.denx.de

There you can download actual sources of linux-2.4 kernels. My advice, use 
linux_2_4_devel cvs tree if you have no particular reason to use another 
tree.

What processor do you use? What board? Is it a custom design or an existing 
board?

You might be interested in u-boot also (the most commonly used bootloader for 
these kind of embedded processors).

www.denx.de, but probably also from www.mvista.com, and many others.

I am OK with this, but "ASAP" does not sound as polite as you should be 
addressing a mailing list ;-)
