I now have a Sun Fire T2000 server up and running with Ubuntu 6.10, and have downloaded the vanilla Linux 2.6.16 kernel and the kernel patch. But to tell you the truth, I am not sure where to begin.
I have been looking at all of the changes the patch makes, and sorting out which modifications need to be made to which files has started to make my brain hurt. Perhaps someone can be of assistance in this situation. I don't have too much experience with rewriting kernel code, so any pointers would be helpful. If for some reason ssh access is needed, depending on who is asking, I can provide access. In the meantime, I will continue to hack away at the code to see if I can get a working kernel together.
