This system has 8GB of RAM, so an LPAE kernel flavour would be quite
useful. The patch (below) seems remarkably simple and, build, installs
and and boots for me.
Perhaps we want to consider getting rid of the vexpress and/or mx5
flavours before adding another one? The armmp flavour appears to have
the relevant options turned on, but has anyone tried it? I guess we'd
want to add dummy patches to aid in the transition?
Ian.
