Ever. When I asked about m68k and testing on release, they said they were fine with the idea of m68k testing. However, until we solve our outstanding toolchain problems (gcc-4.1, gcc-4.2, and glibc tls), it pretty much isn't going to happen. > > Back to wearing my 'm68k kernel hacker' hat ... We need more of that too (still don't have 2.6.20 on m68k :). Having parted know about atari partitions would also be nice -- making it much easier to install on atari. If anyone is interested, there are some preliminary patches floating around I can point you to. Peace, Stephen -- Stephen R.
