OK, I've verified that  it actually does get at least  as far as calling

The mouse pointer just hangs.

Where can I find a tar utility?

I also don't have an FPU. I would think that the video drivers would have
to properly configured for a Duo, also.  It's also been suggested that the
230 might also have different kind of MMU.

Can anyone provide a kernel that gets anywhere on a Duo?
