Notes:

I work in the Linux Technology Center for IBM. I am a member of the Embedded Linux Team but the reality is I work on alot of different things, from linuxppc64, linuxppc32 as well as general kernel kinds of things.

I maintain linuxppc64.org.

The wheels of progress continue to roll.

Currently hacking on www.openembedded.org and specifically creating a ppc version of the software. I'm hoping I can obtain an artic ii ppc pda board that has been demoed at linuxworld from time to time. Ideally I'd love to run oe on that. But we'll see how it goes...

Posted the initial ppc toolchain oe files yesterday. In user space I have zlib, ipkg, glibc 2.3.2 building. Hope to move onto busybox and the kernel by Monday.

Happy New Year!

Again yet another ice age has passed so time for another entry. linuxppc64.org continues to go well. While 2.4.13 is the currently kernel version we are on, we're more frozen for the second so we can maximize our help for SuSE and their efforts.

Lots to do, lots to do ... I'll write about it tomorrow. Now time to get back to getting the TotalImpact briQ running 2.4.

Been a loooooong time since I've had a diary entry. I've graduated to working on ppc64 these days. See linuxppc64.org. The goal for the day is get things updated to 2.4.7 and better yet, get that patch into Linus and Alan.

It would appear that SMP works again on test8, that's good news. Been hard at work on multiple PCI buses on RS/6000 Power3 hardware. It's almost working... just have one set of conflicts that I need to figure out how to best fix.

My BK 2.4 tree is sane again and I intend on keeping that way with a new dev and stable versions. I will only push up to the stable version when things *WORK*.

I got Power3 working again on the latest version of the 2.4.0-test5 kernel .. woo hoo! Nice to move forward off 2.3.99-pre9 ... got alot of miles off that.

Now which box should I bring up next? ... the big black one or that tiny little grey one ... hmmmmmmmmmmmm
