FYI an initrd-free version (which also includes ftrace support, to try to track down the I/O crash issue) is now up for peoples testing pleasure at: http://config.fsf.org/misc/linux-image-2.6.32.2-libre-lemote2_2.6.32.2-libre-lemote2-10.00.Custom_mipsel.deb (I'll try it later today) FYI this is the first time I've used distcc to do the compile (I'll send out an announcement about that when it gets a little nicer); it cut compile time at least in half, from around 4 hours to 2 hours; I think there is room for improvement to get it down to 1.5h or less (possibly much less if SiCortex stuff works out.) (source and "live" build tree are also up at http://config.fsf.org/misc ) -- Daniel JB Clark | Sys Admin, Free Software Foundation pobox.com/~dclark | http://www.fsf.org/about/staff#danny
