m68k is unable to keep up with that schedule, partly because I went on
vacation, and partly because my upstream is still at 2.6.14 and I am not
going to duplicate the work that is going to happen eventually in linux-m68k
CVS, if somebody else wants to do that, fine with me. I tried to hack up
something quick, but I am either getting a diff that does not apply, or a
huge diff, that does not compile. This will have to wait until our CVS is at
2.6.15, which usually never happens before the new version is released.
Even when that is done, I need to work on the config. The last version I
tried on my Amiga (2.6.12) did not quite boot, since it did not load the
SCSI drivers, it did detect the IDE devices though. I assume both SCSI and
IDE drivers are built as modules and live in the initrd? Maybe this is only
a minor problem on m68k then.

Oh, was this really necessary? 32MB wasted for ocaml and friends. Does ocaml
even work on m68k? I only remember having lots of problems with it...
