Hi Chloe,

Probably the earliest backport of IMA was to 2.6.29-rc3 for OpenMoko
(http://waqarafridi.wordpress.com/2009/10/15/porting-ima-plus-selinux-on-openmoko/). 
If you're already building a new kernel, you might as well go with the
latest stable version, which can be downloaded from www.kernel.org.
There were some major changes between 2.6.33 and 2.6.34.

The IMA sf site, http://linux-ima.sourceforge.net/, is the right place
to start.

thanks,

Mimi
