Hence, you need a config/Makefile.linuxsparc and corresponding entries in configure, config/ARCH, config/root-config.in, xrootd/src/xrootd/configure.classic, xrootd/src/xrootd/config/ARCHS, and test/Makefile.arch. You also need to make sure that there are valid entries in base/inc/RConfig.h and clib/src/Getline.c. Everything should be outlined at the above Wiki page. If you do these changes, let me know the outcome. If it works, I'd like a list of your changes, and I'll get them merged in upstream. If we can get ROOT working on Linux/Sparc we will have nailed one more of the major platforms, and only 2 major platforms (alpha and ia64), and 4 minors will be missing. Very cool. Note, that ia64 _should_ work, since it's supported upstream. arm will be particular interesting - Imagine running ROOT on the front-end-electronics of a huge experiment like ATLAS (http://cern.ch/atlas) or ALICE (http://cern.ch/alice).
