I need the full assembly reference, and a complete block diagram of the
processor. Something tells me my coding methods are very different from
yours. I've gotten to the point where I can translate x86->PPC && PPC->x86
on the fly in my head. I don't have a Programmers Environment manual that
covers 64bit, nor do I have the RS64 or RS64-II documentation. If IBM
doesn't want Linux running 64bit native on those processors, whether or
not I get the documentation, they're going to be shit out of luck, because
I will get it working at one point. ;P  If you could get me an up to date
PEM, preferrably hardcopy, let me know privately. Thanks.
