You'll need to be able to create native packages. This means that you'll need a kernel, a compiler (and tools), a glibc and a dpkg (and tools). If all these exist and you are able to recompile Debian packages, it's time to ask for a new architecture. > I'm hoping to kick into life a Debian/390 dist for the IBM S/390 > architecture based on the just released S/390 linux kernel patches. Yes I OH MY GOODNESS! Though, I guess there are three arch's before binary-s390. > p.s. If there is already a Debian/390 project underway any pointers to it > would be appreciated. You should talk to the webmaster team to create prelimnary pages for http://www.debian.org/ports/s390/ Regards, Joey -- A mathematician is a machine for converting coffee into theorems.
