This would be comparable to Debian etch or lenny.
I remember having had a very stable experience with etch on my Ultra 10
back in the day, although this was still with the 32-bit userland. A lot
of things have changes since then, and bit rot has taken hold in some
places.
There's still a lot to do bring things up to speed, but I think it's
still remarkable how much is already working at this point. The port is
by no means ready for General Consumption™️, though.
