Apart from ACPI, the non-ia64 patches required to boot a zx1 should be relatively small: some IRQ changes, support in memmap_init for discontiguous memory, etc.
Having a newer ACPI in 2.4.x (it currently has 20011018!) would make things much easier for ia64. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
