debian-mips on cobalt hardware
I'm looking into buying the Cobalt Qube2, originally under the theory
that I could safely limp along with their webby admin system for a while
while I get my bearings running a box, and eventually replace their
weird, customized, somewhat elderly kernel and configuration with a more
current distribution.
That plan predates my having read over materials such as:
a) www.linux.sgi.com ("The Cobalt Qube support has never been
integrated into the official Linux/MIPS 2.1.x kernels"),
b) the horrifying, chaotic list archives at cobaltnet.com
(<http://ftp.cobaltnet.com/lists/cobalt-users/msg07124.html>),
c) and the near-total lack of any cobalt discussion in Debian's mailing
list archives.
Did I miss anything? Is it reasonable to ever hope to install a
functional debian on this apparently-bastard hardware?
Thanks very much.
