No, this is not quite exact. chrp, chrp-rs6k and prep will be working this time around, i think everything is there, but i need to fiddle the build system for it still to build the initrd images, but i do this already by hand, and everything is in place for it. This would use the powerpc netboot initrd. the cdrom initrd is too big though, i will not have time to fix the kernel for this, so maybe building a new specialized initrd image with all the apple stuff removed would do, not sure though. The powerpc-small floppy target will probably not be on time. Jeremie is working on the miboot upload, and once that reaches the archive, the build system can be fixed. power3 and power4/G5 kernels and initrd are not yet done, but i will have a go at them this week, so hopefully that will be ok. Kernels for G5 powerpmac have not been tested, despite my call for volunteer, but if they don't work out, 2.6 kernels will be needed. It needs linux-kernel-di support for the modules, which i hear is problematic, and some volunteer to test them. > > Here is a short list of things that need to be done still before release: > > And an update, as if you can't read the top of TODO yourselves. :-) > > - partman > - testing! > - clean up lvmcfg UI issue > - probably go for i386, powerpc; other arches unknown I tested it on powerpc, altough couldn't do much tests. My disk has vital information i cannot afford to loose. More to this in a separate mail. Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
