For sure. Yesterday, I managed to get Debian installed in a chroot environment, and I can ssh into it. Yay. Thanks a lot for all the work you've done! I'm still looking for a gcc .deb though - I couldn't find one on your site (or anybody else's for that matter). Hopefully, I can use 'alien' on a mipsel RPM to get something to start with. I'm going to look at the glibc issues too. I worked through all that stuff on ARM, so I'll see what I can do with MIPS. Maybe we can use a CVS version of glibc (I think we did that for ARM). I'm doing some embedded mips stuff at work, and having an up-to-date native compile environment for mips is going to be invaluable to me. Do you want me to file a bug against ftp.debian.org in order to get the debian-mips and debian-mipsel architectures added to sid? As soon as we've got an up-to-date toolchain, I'd like to start uploading. Cheers, - Jim
