I'd really like to have a database of machine, kernel version, cpuinfo, config... So that questions like "what is the latest kernel that is known to be running on this hardware" and "what config should I start from". For example, I have nokia N810 here. It was supported by Linux at some point, but then we moved to dts, and stuff changed, and I can no longer figure how to boot it. I guess "what was last kernel that worked on Cyrix MII" is also relevant question. Is there such database? If not, would people be interested in contributing if I create one?
