Re: [NTG-context] Linux PPC64 & minimals
Two remarks: 1.) Thomas, can you please send me the patch (I can write it myself, but I will not be 100% to get it right). It seems that we need to modify that in several different places (mtx-something.lua, setuptex and first-setup.sh). 2.) The error is not related to minimals/wrong architecture. There may be several reasons. Different shell? Missing mkiv formats? (Can you try "luatools --generate"? It could be that mtxrun doesn't find ctxtools.) Something third? Does compiling a simple document work?

Dunno. I _think_ I need the 32 bit binaries: everything else on the machine was (or should have been) built as 32 bit even though the kernel is 64 bit.
