[ARMedslack] Has anyone tried Linux 2.6.36-rc5?

Your kernel is fine.  I guess whatever you have stripped out helps.
But I am curious whether the kernel I built will boot on the guruplug.
Could you test it?

I wonder if it crashes on the openrd client which has the video chipset;
and whether it'll work on a machine without it.  I don't dare test on my
sheevaplug since I don't have physical access to it.  It'd be great if you
could cause a system reboot via the JTAG cable but I don't think it is;
otherwise I'd be much less cautious when upgrading kernels!
