how old is oldworld?
I have a PMac 8200 which has been sitting for years unused. It was my
development box for MkLinux, but I think it is perhaps to say goodbye to
it, attempts reviving this interesting kernel failed, also by myself,
since hacking in kernel code to support ext2 failed :( a pity.
It is really old.. first PCI series and so has proper OpenFirmware (v1
if memory serves, those that default to serial console) but has PPC 601
CPU. A strange mix of Apple harware and a PPC cpu which is still POWER
compliant... old times!
Is that CPU still supported in the kernel or is it dead? I remember that
some OS remove it, but I don't remember which.
