The University of New Mexico is kind enough to host a mirror of our
pre-patched kernel.  The following steps should just work for you:

 wget http://www.cs.unm.edu/~k42/pub/k42-devkit/linux-029.tar.gz
 tar xzf linux-029.tar.gz 
 cvs co kitchsrc
 cd kitchsrc
 make full_snapshot LINUXSRCROOT=$PWD/../linux-029
 cd ../linux-029
 make -f Makefile.k42 MKANCHOR=$PWD/.. \
   CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc64-linux- CROSS32_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- k42libs
 
I have tested and verified those steps; please let us know if you run
into any problems.

As a side note, we have a development kit that lets you build K42 out of
the box on an x86 Debian system:
