Hi Debian Mentors and Debian PPCers, I am looking for a sponsor for my package "kboot-utils", it is needed to make debian-installer complete a successful installation on PlayStation3. I am also the upstream author.
* Package name : kboot-utils Version : 0.2 Upstream Author : Antonio Ospite <osp...@studenti.unina.it> * URL : http://git.ao2.it/kboot-utils.git/ * License : GPLv3 Programming Lang: Posix shell Description: Helper tools to automatically generate a kboot.conf file from entries in /boot. The kboot.conf file can be read by the petitboot bootloader which is used for instance on the Sony PlayStation 3 in OtherOS mode in order to list kernels to boot. It builds the binary package: kboot-utils The package can be downloaded with dget using this command: dget -u http://ao2.it/debian/kboot-utils_0.2-1.dsc The source package can be found in the 'debian' branch at: http://git.ao2.it/kboot-utils.git/ The package has been tested with pbuilder, checked with lintian, verified to be piuparts-clean. As I was saying this package is needed to have a 100% working installation on the PlayStation3, for details look at Bug #619236: http://bugs.debian.org/619236 you can also read on the wiki that as for now kboot.conf needs to be created by hand: http://wiki.debian.org/PS3#Debian_installer The plan is to first have kboot-utils in the official archive and then make d-i install it when machine==PS3.
