Re: More Status of "Home Grown" ActionTec Development Daughterboard

Most of the Conexant stuff is in the 2.4.24 uCLinux kernel.  However, 
much of the boot/init code has been re-written later in the 2.4 kernel 
series.  The whole method for passing boot args to the kernel seems to 
have changed.  I haven't really looked into it a whole lot. I just gave 
it a compile and tried to boot it.  I got nothing on the console and 
stopped there.  I've been to busy to go back to it since then.   I have 
half a mind to look at the 2.6 uCLinux kernel and see how bad it looks.
