Where did the power3/power4 ppc64 flavours go ?
|
||||
===============================================
|
||||
|
||||
As of 2.6.12, and anticipating the inclusion of a powerpc biarch
|
||||
toolchain in debian sid and then etch, we have dropped the 32bit
|
||||
ppc64 flavours. I will provide unofficial -pseries (replace all
|
||||
previous 64bit flavours) at :
|
||||
|
||||
http://people.debian.org/~luther/ppc64
|
||||
|
||||
until we are able to build them inside of debian, which will
|
||||
hopefully be only a couple of weeks now.
|
||||
|
||||
But if you feel impatient, here are the instructions on how to build
|
||||
those arches yourselves :
|
||||
|
||||
1) install the ubuntu/breezy glibc and gcc-4.0 packages (preferably
|
||||
in a sid chroot)
|
||||
2) go into debian/arch/powerpc
|
||||
3) rename the 32bit flavours to noconfig.powerpc[-smp]
|
||||
4) rename the 64bit flavours to config.pseries
|
||||
5) edit Makefile.inc, and change the last three lines to :
|
||||
headers_subarch = powerpc
|
||||
build_subarch = powerpc64
|
||||
default_config = pseries
|
||||
6) go into the toplevel, and launch :
|
||||
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc -B
|
||||
|
||||
This should build you a couple of packages, where you would be interested
|
||||
in the linux-image-2.6.12-1-pseries and linux-headers-2.6.12-1-pseries ones.
|
||||
|
||||
Enjoy,
