Hi guys,

As mentioned a few months back, we're using several of these machines
as build daemons for the armel architecture. More details at

  http://blog.einval.com/2010/09/27#marvell_buildds

We were hoping that these machines could be made to work with the
existing kirkwood kernel flavour, but experimentation says not. I've
built a local kernel which works, starting from the 2.6.32 kirkwood
config and modifying it as little as possible; config at

  http://www.einval.com/~steve/debian/marvell/marvell.config/

Please could you add a new kernel flavour for these machines? It would
make things much easier for us in keeping the machines up-to-date with
security etc. It'll slow things down slightly wrt kernel builds (of
course), but they'll be responsible for building their own kernels
anyway...

Thanks!

Life would be so much easier if we could look at the source code.
