Linux Kernel 4.9.0 MVEBU package and rootfs for Zyxel NAS326 and all other MVEBU boards in Linux mainline.
At the moment, this kernel is fully functional and has been tested with the Zyxel NAS326. There are a lot more functionalities that will be added in future kernel releases. If you try this kernel with other MVEBU boards please report your finding so it can be added to list of support boxes.
Note: Since this is an initial release, I have not created a kernel patch yet (it will come in future releases). However, I've attached the NSA326 DTS source code here in this post (this is the relevant patch for this kernel). If you'd like to build your own kernel, then download the linux-4.9.0-mvebu-tld-7-bodhi.tar.bz2 tarball, use the config file in this tarball and copy the attached DTS into the source tree, and change the Makefile and Kconfig file in that directory.
Credit: Thanks to hean01, rr4m, musv, and others who developed and tested in Zyxel NAS326 - Debian / Boot from USB thread. A lot of good works have been done before I have free time to join in!
