Funny, there have been three enquiries about the O2 in the last two days. ;-) I have an O2 R5K and looked into getting Debian and debian-installer running recently. There aren't too many problems that need to be fixed. While we won't provide official O2 images for sarge (our next release), I intend to provide images for the O2 on my web site. If you give me a few days, I can do that. That will be for the R5000 model since I cannot test the R10000. > I found on the Debian-Website that there are known problems for these models: The mips page is unfortunately fairly out of date. > O2 R10000 is NOT supported I think there's support now, but I'm not sure. > O2 R5000 - EXPERIMENTAL without framebuffer This should work but I cannot test it. I did an installation via serial console (with my modified boot images) and that worked fine. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
