For 2.4, I've had good success on two different boards
using the v2pro and virtex4 parts with:
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~pml/uclinux_powerpc/
The kernel tarball there has support for various xilinx
supplied peripheral cores..
The neat thing about this approach is that there is a
uclinux BSP for the EDK that is used to generate an
auto-config.in file which you then drop directly
into the linux kernel tree.
Even though it is about the microblaze rather than
the PPC, a helpful "getting started" document is:
