Hi, I know my source code is vert old. But since there are lots of applications developed base on this 2 sets of source code, if the kernel and U-Boot needs to change, the above applications (tons of codes) also need to revise ... (lots of multimedia players, drivers, and other supporting tools). My team cannot afford such great change.
So I say "update is not recommended" ... Thanks for your quick reply.

Both U-Boot 1.0.0 and Linux 2.4.20 are not only old, they are ancient. Zillions of smaller and bigger bugs have been fixed since. Do yourself a favour and use current code.
