Hi, MPC8641D is AFAIK a dual core processor based on the PowerPC architecture. Ubuntu officially has stopped support for PowerPC since 2007 and hence does not ship related kernels. However you can still obtain the vanilla Linux Kernel from www.kernel.org and tweak it to support your board or use Debian's PowerPC port http://www.debian.org/ports/powerpc/. I am CC'ing the Ubuntu India mailing list also as there are lot more experienced people out there who might be willing to help you. Also if you havent done already please do subscribe to the Ubuntu India mailing list https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in Hope that helps. thanks.
