Excuse me for breaking in here. As a matter of fact a R4000 port is worked on.
I'm working on it and have not heard (have been asking) anyone else doing it.
The port is targeted against Acer Labs Pica61 board. Current status is that
the kernel boots, mapping is working, console driver is working. Next is to
make the SCSI driver working and get the miniroot into memory. I'm doing this
on 'spare time' basis so progress is not so good as one would like but i
expect to need some 4-5 weeks more until i have a shell prompt. Porting to
other systems is more or less a matter of getting drivers to work.
