Anything else you need which isn't recompiled yet? Ok, got it. Thanks. I forgot to mention also the newt package (I built it myself but I have had to patch it because of its pseudo dependancies with python, therefore I didn't want to upload it).

I don't know if I will have time to work on 2.1 series. The serial console code detection have to be reworked since 2.1 now use a special device for the console (no need to install the right symlink to the tty). Nevertheless, if I'd do it, it will be based on 2.1.125, not 2.1.130. This is the only one present in my local mirror (I don't have regular access to a fast internet connection, just a 14kb/s modem every days & a 2MB/s one or two times per week when I go to my lab ;-( ).

Oh, I never figured out it was due to a missing map file. Thanks for your work. I will try it tomorrow if I can find the map to use: I did a quick search in the glibc source package but didn't find any libc.map file :-( Can you send it to me or tell me were I can get it in the glibc source tree ?

ash need to be recompiled
Hello, I'm requiring new ash package to release bootdisks (0.3.4-2 in sid complains about different size for sys_siglist). Is someone working on it or should I do it myself ? Thanks in advance. PS: I did a fresh install on a sparc-classic last night with minor troubles.
