 Why are you waiting? (Patiently or otherwise)  Why not offer to get
involved in the project?

Alright!  I finally got my HP 715.  Now I need to get started with the project.  I was planning on getting MkLinux going, but apparently, the opengroup site with the software has been taken down.  Does anyone have the disk image that I could ftp?  Also, is everyone booting off the network (for development purposes)?

thanks for your help!

The 715/33 won't run mklinux at all. Basically one of the reasons I have
set my hopes on the real PARISC port. (Which I will patiently await.)

Don't just wait, get involved!  :-)  There are several models of 715,
btw, he doesn't necessarily have the one model of 715 which mkLinux
won't work with.  I do though!

binfmt_som is coming on quite well, I'll hopefully have a first cut
released by tomorrow.  I'm not quite sure how it will tie in with
the rest of the code yet.

I am not a programmer. I may do testruns as soon as the kernel stuff goes
to alpha stage.

Quite busy with documentation projects.

Please guys. Don't send message to me if you send them to the list as
well. I find 1 copy quite enough.

it's normal practice to do so on mailing lists.  it allows conversations
to happen much quicker when the listserv is slow (as vger is right now).
it's also the way that mailreaders work - reply to sender or reply to all
- changing that is a pain.  not to mention that you did the same thing :-)

It isn't normal practice! It may be your practice. This list behaves
normaly which is quite unlike the overloaded and underpowered system of
vger.
