What is the status of the Opensolaris Power PC port? Is the project still active? There were not any status reports or updates in the last months.
Bruno ------------------------------------- Cyril, PPC for Solaris community lead, can best answer that question over in the PowerPC discussions group. Last I checked, a few things were going on: 1. Updating of GCC toolkit (GCC 4.1.1,binutils 2.17) 2. Updating of ON build to a recent version (offline b54+?). 3. Retirement of the Genesi Pegasos 1/2 hardware. 4. Movement to the the new Genesi EFIKA 5200B and Pegasos 8641D hardware. 5. Support for PowerPC G4 to G5 (PPC750GX) architectures. 6. MDB 7. Other You know it takes awhile to review architectures like this: "The Freescale MPC8641D 2.0 Dual Core Power Architecture™ processor features 2 e600 processor cores, each with AltiVec™ vector processing units, 1MB L2 cache, PCI Express peripheral links, DDR2 memory controller and multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports." as well as merge,compile, and test kernels for those architectures.... ;o> Ken Mays EarthLink, Inc.
