PowerPC Port of Debian GNU/Linux
- Work on boot-floppies
- We need better floppy support on chrp
- Stabilize the video mode on tervola
- Try an X-Server on tervola
- Package up nvsetup
This tool is used to read and write OF variables. It should
probably be contained in a pmac-utils package or so.
- Package up pdisk
Currently On PowerPC systems you can't use the regular fdisk
that comes with i386 systems although it compiles. The partition
table simply looks different. The appropriate tool for PowerPC
systems (as well as some m68k machines) is pdisk. Currently
there is no .deb containing one.
- Work on Quik
On CHRP you seem to be able to boot off of another file system
and load the kernel from there. On Pmac/PReP (i.e. on tervola)
you need the second stage loader quik. At least that's my
impression.
And since it gives you a similar flexibility to lilo on
regular machines it's a good thing, too.
- Geert Uytterhoeven: Fix race conditions when switching between
VCs with different color depths. After that I can try XF68_FBDev
in>8 bpp (got patches from Gerd, but it crashes due to problem
one). And I want my S3 working, and accelerated X fopr Mach64,
and, ...
- Set up some kind of auto-compiler
