Hello Guys,<br>
<br>
Just an update from me, on the subject of kernel 4.0.4 and BPiR1 .
The kernels have come and gone , and while waiting for 4.1 to come
out I had a bit of a play to see if my original patch set would work
on a series 4 kernel . And to cut a long story short it will not .
So out came the spare board , and after a few hours of chasing new
source for the switch we have a new patch . Hopefully there will not
be a huge jump from 4.0.4 to 4.1 as far as the switch is concerned ,
but anyway the new patch is a better starting place compared with
the old one . If any of you guys wants to have a shot at it here is
my compiling procedure and gzipped patch attached .<br>

You notice that I am enabling f2fs , I am using that file system on
my production server . These days you probably do not need to do it
as upstream is already doing it . It is just a carryover from my old
script .<br>
