Re: Regarding Kirkwood cpu support
Yes, it will be in 2.6.30. Marvell has their own git tree at http://git.marvell.com/?p=orion.git;a=shortlog;h=combined and they typically submit their patches very quickly. Note that the support for the CPU itself and most of the peripherals has been in kernel.org since 2.6.27 or so -- the scheduled-for-2.6.30 additions are only a (small) board support file and the SDIO driver. I saw the Kirkwood support, but I've been bitten before by the Castle Iyonix which is now an expensive ornament, because its patches never made it upstream. Thanks guys, that's great news! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org

For the record, we identified the problem (with the help of John Bowler) and the problem is fixed in oldsys-preseed 3.5. There was a problem parsing the empty SysConf partition of an uninitalized NSLU2. Thanks for getting it fixed. Also, for the record, I cannot prove that I hadn't erased the SysConf partition. That particular slug is the only one that I have that has a blank SysConf partition. I would have expected at least one other to have a blank SysConf partition since I have always installed Debian straight-away.

Repository help.
I have seen many How to's regarding Local Repositories, but I don't know if it covers all architectures including ARM. What I'm trying to do is to setup a Server on my network which will have a local repo for my two NSLU2 and maybe if it's not too big(40GBs the actual size of the HHD) will hold also repos for AMD64 and i386 Arch. Why? because I have only one ADSL 1Mb link on the network, and sometimes there's so much trafic and the NSLU2s can't be upgraded or even updated. Is there any documentation you guys can point me to? How can I set a local repo just for ARM/AMD64 and i386? TIA. -- It is human nature to think wisely and act in an absurd fashion.
