Topic: fonera openwrt kernel 2.4

Is there a openwrt flash file with kernel 2.4 instead of 2.6?
I was searching it but I didn't find it. Please can somebody compile it so that I can flash it like the version with kernel 2.6?

2.4 on Atheros SoC platform is obsolete. Use Atheros [2.6] Target in Kamikaze menuconfig.

Yes I know but I need it for my MMC/SD-card mod!

It'd be better if someone can just port the driver. Many sd/mmc bit banging drivers for linux 2.6...just need to port it...

Yes, but I don't have the knowledge to do that.
If I had an image with the 2.4 kernel for lafonera it should works!

two choices:
1. update your skills.
2. wait patiently for ported driver.

2.4 kernel for atheros is obsolete !

well 2.4 may be obsolte, but FON.com still keeps stuck onto it :-(

Fon also releases their source tree as well. While I've not heard of anyone successfully compiling it, it might be worth the effort if you really want to stick with a 2.4 kernel.

The discussion might have continued from here.
