I finished reviewing of the kernel config, and updated kernel to current 3.2.6 One of modification - to use LZO kernel compression to i486 kernel (it has faster decompression speed, but also have worse compression ratio). IMHO some tens (or hundreds) of KBs on storage isn't too much cost for so

Hi Andrew; hi all, I've updated on my local host the Linux kernel to 3.2.4 for the Bering-uClibc next branch. The configs are more or less the same as with our current production release and requires definitly further review. To get it build changes to buildpacket.pl and Mastermakefile are requ

Hi Andrew, Hi all, I've manged today to boot a spare Alix box with the next major version of Bering-uClibc, also known as "buc-next". I've been able to establish a ppp connection and to access the Net from my LAN - so the basics works with my setup copied from the production machine. I've yet no
