Linux 2.4.19-rmk7-pxa2-adsx9

This version

Does NOT support ADSmartIO on the BitsyX

Does support the AGX, GCX and VGX boards.

No longer supports prototype VGX boards. Use Rev A or higher.

Supports USB on the VGX.

Has improved support for TTY modem control signals.

Important Warnings and Requirements

Do not use a connector board older than Rev A on the BitsyX.

To build the kernel, you must use a compiler that supports the Xscale CPU.
You can use the one we used to build the precompiled kernels provided below.
Download arm-2.95.3.tar.gz , untar it in /usr/local/ and add it to your path.
```
cd /usr/local
tar xzf arm-2.95.3.tar.gz
PATH=/usr/local/pxa/bin:$PATH
```
