I'm willing to help you out on this. I have 6 alpha machines (4 of which are debian supported now, the other 2 are turbo channel machines for which I did some work to get the linux kernel to work, but they aren't ready yet). I also maintain the quik package (oldworld powermac bootloader) and comaintain sibyl (Broadcom swarm bootloader). I'm familiar with alpha, mips, powerpc and arm architectures. I hope I can help you here. Cheers, Peter (p2). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
