Lack of time and therefore code and problems with the kernel. 2.4.22 has a
runtime problem on mipsel which is currently being investigated and the
2.4.19 packages require an update because they currently fail to build from
source to due toolchain changes in current unstable.

As we have no bootloader capable of pre-loading the ramdisk, the ramdisk
must be compiled in statically, which is currently done manually and with
patched sources.

Karsten
