Ok. I have added moved the pegasos patches to kernel-source, as it is now in
way to upstream, and also added there the G4 errata fix, for which i will
request a new powerpc build soon, as it fix stability issues with many G4
processors.

Now, what about reading those patches to kernel-patch-powerpc until the new
kernel-source is released, and modify the kernel-pacth rules so it uses
2.6.7-3 version of the kernel-source ? I would provide such a patch.

What is your take on this ? And i guess it is a generic question of how we
will handle patch migration.

Friendly,
