Not right now. My intial goal for Linux/MIPS is hardware support, i.e. processor support and then drivers. I can start thinking of feature support once we have reasonable hardware support in the kernel... -- Jayachandran C. jayachandranc@netlogicmicro.com (Netlogic Microsystems) jchandra@freebsd.org (The FreeBSD Project)
