Mips Cobalt cube distro

Mips Cobalt cube distro

[James Simmons]

Hi!

   We just have created a debian distro from the latest packages using a
2.4.5 kernel for tthe MIPS cobalt cube. You can grab the image from

http://www.pocketlinux.com/~samc/debian-cobalt

Just read the README and have fun.

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessary a
good idea.                                 [ Alexander Viro on linux-kernel ]

Just go the CVS section. arch/mips/configs/defconfig-cobalt is the
configuration I used.
