Does 2.4.19 work with linux-kernel-di? You don't need to rebuild the
image to make the modern *modules-di.udeb. Once a set of kernel-image
and moudles udebs is there the build can be tried and fixed while
someone else tries to make a bootloader.

Same problem as on powerpc.
Having no hardware myself I can hardly help there. The delay by me
patching and someone else testing (probably allways a days roundtrip
because we each sleep when the other is awake) is just to much.
