Then it should be "a little bit forced"...  :-)

I have the need for a bunch of Server and (ultra light) Workstations
based on "arm", "mips" or i386 (I am not speaking about Pentium M or
such, since the consume too much energy)

What are the exact requirements for this Kernel?

Maybe I am blind or does the Website does not contain infos about it?

It would be nice, if there is a TODO list of things which should be
done with an attched list what to do...  So everyone can pickup a
"project" and work on it.

And?  --  What must be done to build such image?

Note: My contract with the french Ministry of Defense ends on 2007-07-31
      and I want o leave France permanently and I will live in my two
      MobilHomes where I have ONLY 16 Photopholtaik panels of 75 Watt
      and an Internet connection over GlobelSat...

      This is, WHY I switch from i386/amd64 to arm/mips.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
