Not sure. I know Kars de Jong did get his MVME to work with 2.6; but I haven't been able to boot it with the Debian images; it doesn't produce any output. I don't know why that is, but I suspect it has something to do with the serial port (though it must be more than just that, because waiting and pinging after a few minutes doesn't do much either). > In that case, those unsupported subarches would be dropped for Debian > Etch to meet the release requirements, wouldn't they?
