The boxes have admins that are keeping them up to date, what is needed is a working kernel with security updates. I remember you (or maybe thibaut?) volunteering to provide a kernel+initramfs of a recent working kernel with security updates. Does that exist?

FWIW, the hppa experimental buildds both run 2.6.22 kernels and seem to do fine. Probably not a very good situation security-wise, though. I didn't manage to get any recent kernel to boot, yet...

I got access to Thibault Varene's farm, but when I tried, other hppa > kernel problems were present. These kernel issues currently kill the two HPPA build daemons quite often - they are currently running 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-parisc #2 Wed Jun 11 19:04:04 UTC 2008. Last week I had to reset them more often than I can count with my fingers without resorting to binary. Unless this gets fixed I don't see much of a future for peri and penalosa, at least not as DSA/debian.org systems. Also, these two build daemons are at the same location, so at the least we're lacking redundancy in buildd location. Then there is the issue of the porter box, which still didn't get a fixed kernel for the Februrary kernel thing. DSA did ask around for help but it vanished every time.
