Dear Jarno,

I just got Das U-Boot 1.0.0 working on my custom 8245 board (yay! :-) and am peeking for linux now. However, the CVS HEAD of DENX contains 2.4.23 which adds function pointers to struct bd_info while U-Boot 1.0.0 doesn't.

I'm not sure what you are talking about. No function pointers have been added to any version of include/asm-ppc/ppcboot.h in the linuxppc_2_4_devel tree.

So, which CVS tag can I use to get a 2.4.20 that works with U-Boot?

Did you attempt to run "cvs log" on a file, say:

-> cvs log Makefile

DENX_2003_10_30_0110 is the latest CVS tag on a 2.4.20 kernel.

All this...

...can be found out with minimal effort using standard CVS commands ...is documented in the CHANGELOG file ...is unrelated to U-Boot and thus off topic on this list

Best regards,
