The 2 patches I applied are from these posts:
http://www.linuxbios.org/pipermail/linuxbios/2006-May/014546.html
http://www.linuxbios.org/pipermail/linuxbios/2006-May/014777.html
Granted, both of these patches were offered up as "hacks," but they
work, allowing the GX1 cache to be enabled and for the IRQ map to be
successfully copied, so I endorse them. :-)
thanks,
Jonathan
