Hi,
When booting newer kernels from letux https://download.goldelico.com/letux-kernel/ I noticed that there was only 256MB of memory available rather than the expected 1GB expected on the Creator CI20. 256MB is pretty tight to do things and the board. It would be good if CONFIG_HIGHMEM was enabled again for MIPS kernel builds.
Looking through the git commits it looks like this was likely turned off by:
