Now my question: the last known Kernel witch supports APUS is 2.6.15 I am actually working with the last kernel 2.4.17. I am unable to compile an 2.6.15 kernel because it allways ends in an Error-message. Is there anyone out who finaly did this? Or is the old bootstrab able to boot an 2.6.15 kernel?


Figuring the reason why "it doesn't work" requires you to paste perhaps hundreds of lines from the build process.  It could be a long and demanding process.

Rather ask yourself: why do I need the 2.6.15 kernel when the 2.4.17 is working just fine?

(I'd rather ask myself why the hell would I run Linux on an Amiga, but that's another story :))

''to use the ultimate collection of software.'' maybe?


Sure, but on an Amiga?  I think we all agree that it's much easier and far more convenient to do this on an old PC, which you can probably even get for free.  It will do the job many times better.

And, besides, he can run the "ultimate collection of software" on his current kernel as well.

But, as I said, that's another story, sorry for going offtopic.
