Gentoo Linux PPC64 DevelopmentThis project is dedicated to running Gentoo on PowerPC64 systems. These systems encompass IBM RS/6000s, Power Macintosh G5 systems, IBM pSystem, IBM iSystem, and POWER-based servers, and the recently introduced Sony PS3s. The current release for Gentoo and PPC64 is 2006.1 and is available from any of the Gentoo mirrors. The current release offers the ability to run a PPC64 kernel with either a 32bit or 64bit userland. Check out the newly introduced PS3 subproject. With all the attention, we could not help but jump on the band-wagon. 2006-12-18: PPC64 page revived This page has finally gotten an update. We'll do our best to keep it up and running with new information.
All developers can be reached by e-mail using nickname@gentoo.org. 4. Installation of Gentoo/PPC64 Just follow the PPC64 handbook. If you get stuck join us on irc.freenode.org #gentoo-ppc64 or open a bugreport at bugs.gentoo.org. As with all Open Source projects, volunteers are at the core of making it all happen! Even if you only have an hour or two here or there or you don't know how to code, that's perfectly ok. There are many aspects of an open source project and your talents certainly can advance if not be critical to the project! Please consider helping the team out by joining us on IRC. We hang out on #gentoo-ppc64 on irc.freenode.net. All people are welcome. |
