Kullervo should work without any problems as it's an A3000 and Arrakis
is the same, which runs happily on 3.2.0-3-amiga.
Upgrading, though, is a little more difficult in the meanwhile,
compared to what I once blogged about in
http://blog.windfluechter.net/content/blog/2011/07/26/1189-upgrading-m68k-etch-m68k-unstable
- you'll need to work around many dependency problems and try hard with
dpkg --force-depends and others.
Maybe it's easier to use a newer boot image (Wouter was said to make
some in Banja Luca Debconf) and install from scratch and restore /etc
and such?
I should try to hook them
up to my TV/monitor, it would indeed be nice to get rid of the
flicker
fixer. But does NMMN have a flatscreen TV in its datacenter? Small
screens
are not very expensive, if they also work, maybe they can get one,
since
they always offer to support Debian.
I got one from my employer. We have/ahd many old TV flat screens from
our ships. I'll provide the panel to NMMN, because it has Scart as well
as VGA/DVI inputs... it's a 4:3 19" or something like that from LG (LG
L193ST).
It would be nice to collect info like this (hardware/driver status,
usable
monitors, installation hints...) in the wiki. I am not using m68k
hardware
often enough, so I always start from scratch. Next time I should add
some
notes to the wiki.
Good idea. Usually I blog about those kind of things because I forget
easily as well, but can remember that I blogged about an issue.
BTW: I'm right now in the progress of trying to setup a buildd chroot.
Once done, I try to make a tarball out of it that can be used by the
other machines as well.
Next step would then be to check if buildd infrastructure is working
properly (quinn-diff, wanna-build, sbuild, etc)...
