No problem. I have also been in contact with the bemac shop to get hand on a oldworld pmac myself, if the occasion presents itself. > > Two problems remain now, one of them not being all that important > > maybe. > > > > 1) miboot and rsrce need to be packaged.

We can do the polishing later, no problem with that, polishing is best done once the package is in use, and receive testing anyway. For the legal stuff, definitely a reminder is ok, and please CC me about it, or one of the lists.

This is a dependency for d-i on oldworld, so it is rather urgent. rsrce is legaly ok, and depended upon by miboot, so nothing is stopping us from uploading it. > > 2) -boot, -boot-ofonly and -root don't build properly when building on > > a system running a 2.6 kernel.

Needs investigation, maybe someone else will comment. Anyway, thanks again for your work on this. Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
