[fedora-arm] uImage-2.6.30-sheevaplug is definitely broken

[omalleys at msu.edu]

My guruplug shipped with 2.6.32, I don't think there is a lot of  
hardware differences between that and the sheeva.

You might try:
http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/Re-building_the_kernel_and_U-Boot

I just rolled the kernel last night as I need CONFIG_KEYS=y to  
run/build AFS and they just did a pre-release of 1.6 and I wanted to  
test the build.

I don't recall exactly if it is in uboot, the kernel or a combination  
of the two.
