I didn't say it wouldn't work. I expect most of the user land stuff to be fine. I did try to get a later version of udev working on the 3.2 kernel image supplied from TI with not much luck, but that is another problem. The biggest problem I have though, with the 3.2 kernel, is that the TI version supplied with their SDK does not seem to run for more than a couple of days without rebooting.
How are you finding the 3.2 kernel from RCN ? Although I am guessing it is going to be based on the TI 3.2 kernel.
