Hi, I've been working on customizing a GuruPlug to do some specific tasks on my home network. I've tried installing Slackware & Debian (both successful) but I haven't been able to build a functional kernel or get wireless running. So, I wonder:

* How much of a hassle is it to get from a vanilla kernel tree to a bootable uImage? (I've gotten clean compiles using the config from /boot/config-whatever, but it hangs on boot after "Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.")

* Are the Marvell wireless drivers & tools integrated into the kernel / distro, or is it still an "add external software" project?

(I'm fiddling with this in the first place, rather than going with a full Slackware or Debian install, because I'd like to put together a minimal system that fits in the 512MB NAND Flash, so my USB disk can be all data.)

Thanks!
