So, could we get some input from the kernel team on this topic, then? Are you guys prioritizing work to get a new kernel in testing or work to get yet another upstream release in unstable?

debian-hppa port support
Debian, If you have any problems building a debian package for hppa, please contact me on debian-hppa. As a porter I've setup a debian buildd on my local hppa machine for reproducing build problems. Please don't hesitate to email debian-hppa. Known issues: * The ruby1.9 build problem still exists on hppa until we switch to nptl (to support the signal semantics expected by ruby) or disable the particular test to allow the build to complete. * glibc does not yet support nptl. glibc patches to enable nptl for hppa are complete, but usability testing is still in progress to iron out the remaining bugs. Note: I'm only subscribed to debian-hppa, please CC me or debian-hppa. Cheers, Carlos O'Donell -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: remastering ISOs to append boot options
Sorry, I don't understood the question. The PC have a RJ-45 connector? Can be that a "net plu"g is a serial console too. I have installed Debian in SunFire V120 (Sparc maquine with RJ-45 connector "serial console") through hyperterminal with the standard Debian installation CD A possible alternate way can be a preseed installation (a preconfigured file) 2009/7/11 Samuel Thibault > MaTa, le Sat 11 Jul 2009 15:39:06 +0200, a écrit : > > I'm sorry if I'm not an expert, but you can try with > "DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text" > > boot parameter, to install using the serial port. > > The question is: how do you type this with a PC that has no screen or > keyboard, just a USB plug? > > Samuel > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
