Greetings! Forwarded from a conversation between Andreas and me. Suggestions most welcome.
Take care, ============================================================================= Hi, I need to admit: ugh. I'm by far not an porter enough for this, but please send your results to [email protected]. I'm happy to provide hardware data (mayer and rem are swarm machines, phrixos is loongson 2f), and let other people access the machines here if helpful. I probably could also arrange access to an swarm-class mipsel machine.
