[U-Boot-Users] kernel 2.6 compile problem for TQM860L

Hello,
I've stuck with the new kernel that I've downloaded from www.kernel.org . I'm using the TQM860L board with eldk3 working on it. I've downloaded the 2.6.9-rc3 kernel and tried to build with
make TQM860L_defconfig make uImage
commands. I also set the Makefile for "CROSS_COMPILE = ppc_8xx-" and "PLATFORM=ppc" switches
But the result is so many errors in uart related ( arch/ppc/8xx_io/uart.c ) file. like 233 'info' undeclared ( first use in this function ) 234 'name' undeclared ( first use in this function )
vs.
My question is why this kernel is not built with the default settings. What am I doing wrong ?
Thank you.

Dear Yigit,

I'm afraid I have to tell you that you done nearluy everything wrong.
First, this is completely off topic here. This mailing list is about U-Boot only.
Second, trying to use Linux 2.6 on a MPC8xx processor is adventurous at best. Ther eare known (and unfixed) problems with the memory management.
Also, the TQM8xxL series of boards has not been ported to 2.6 yet (and I dare to say that it may take another 6 months before 2.6 is stable enough that we will start any such effort).

Everyting, and more...
