Hello,

I've an ARM SL3516  board with Linux 2.6.15 and I've tool-chain setup.
I could able to compile the GPL source.  This board has red-boot.

I would like to update the kernel to 3.8.24.  My first attempt so not
sure about anything I should know, gotchas  etc.

Any advice about the compilation , config will be appreciated.

Redboot has option  to upgrade kernel.  So I guess I can use it once I
get the kernel image compiled.

I tried using the  existing  ".config" but not sure some SL3512
specific options would work?

Looking at the distribution,  I don't see the  "mach-sl2312" listed.
Can you just copy it from the old distribution and does it work this
way?

There is this "mach-gemini" but it seems only for some W boards.

Thanks in advance
