ppc64 (i.e. big-endian) isn't the same as ppc64el (i.e. little-endian). The architecture isn't endian-switchable in userspace. So no, I'm afraid that doesn't help much; it still leaves us bootstrapping from scratch. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
