Re: PowerPC based ATX main board



One might note what jackasses these folks have been to OSS developers before one got excited. Google is instructive.

look at http://www.pegasos.dk

here you will find a kernel capable of booting to the sysinst feature.

I am part of a loosely connected group of people trying to get NetBSD running on the PegasosII.

The kernel above is based on NetBSD 2.0 sources.

The work has stalled for some time now... lack of time from all of us I guess...

Gentoo runs wonderfully on the Pegasos.

I found it a joy to install, particularly using the more recent GCC releases.

This is one of the few machines I would preferentially choose to run Linux on.

Does anyone know if NetBSD will run on this? It does run Yellow Dog
Linux, but I am a bsd man through and through.


I have one but the Genesi folks wouldn't release some of the info
needed to properly support one.  (mostly how the GPIO/MPP pins are
used and what is the interrupt structure.)


If yellow dog runs on it, isn't that info able to be ascertained from the
kernel source?
