Re: [PATCH 0/10]: Respin of sparc patches.
From: David Miller da...@davemloft.net Date: Sat, 07 Mar 2009 06:26:35 -0800 (PST) FWIW, everything other than actually booting a Linux kernel is functional in my local tree. Sparc64 Linux kernel booting now works in my tree too, even compressed kernel images and initrd are fully functional. I'll toss together a Solaris kernel loader just for completeness. ___ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel

Well, we need time both for the paperwork and for reviewing them. I'm not sure how many of us are experienced with sparc (Vincent? Who else?). I at least can comment on Ieee1275 stuff, so does Pavel, Marco, Manoel and probably others. We'll get there. Just be patient :-) I am able to boot into the GRUB kernel prompt on my test system, I have a lot of new code written, I'm _EXTREMELY_ motivated and want to get this all working fully in the next week or so. I'm very interested to see proper sparc support completed/merged. Your effort is much appreciated. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: Your data belongs to us.

Le Saturday 07 March 2009 11:37:36 Robert Millan, vous avez écrit : I'm not sure how many of us are experienced with sparc (Vincent? Who else?). I wouldn't call me experienced, except if it only means that I did experimentation with that arch :) . I'm very interested to see proper sparc support completed/merged.
