Yeah, I agree. We need to check SoC type for it during booting...

Maybe you missed my e-mail...or..I missed?...anyway...
Could you please re-send it so that can get the patch via e-mail?

Thanks...

Basically, I'd like to keep single binary for S3C24XX, maybe Ben also agree
with this. But also there is some side effects, i.e., according to
mach-s3c2410/Makefile.boot, zreladdr is different. But only selected
0x30108000 as zreladdr when build time because selected CONFIG_PM_H1940 with
s3c2410_defconfig if there is no changes kernel configuration. This is just
simple example. Maybe There are many similar examples.

Hmm...anyway, we need to sort it out with keeping S3C24XX single binary.
Will think some method for this...

Best regards,
Kgene.
