[00:06] <TheMuso> NCommander: when you did your ia64 shuffle, you forgot to tweak the getabis script properly, so you can imagine what happened when I uploaded linux-ports last night for ia64...
[00:06] <TheMuso> s/properly//
[00:08] <TheMuso> of course I forgot to check, but anyway.
[01:10] <jbailey> NCommander, If you are going to care about hppa, can you take a look at: https://launchpad.net/~doko/+archive/toolchain
[01:10] <jbailey> the eglibc failure would probably block its adoption by other arches.
[01:10] <jbailey> If not, there's another good excuse to just pitch it.
[05:13] <lamont> NCommander: jaunty alternate?
[05:18] <lamont> jaunty/ia64 alternate that is
[15:39] <NCommander> lamont, I can build it, but the kernel won't be available, and after noon today, I won't have an ia64 to mess with
[15:39] <NCommander> lamont, (until after UDS)
[15:40] <NCommander> lamont, if you can give me modified metapackages that can pull in the necessary kernel, I'll spin a CD (I have an easy mechanism which to inject new packages into a CD image)
[15:51] <jbailey> NCommander, You could just put it on the internet.
[15:51] <jbailey> I can promise you that whatever security exploits people are using these days aren't targetted to ia64. =
[15:51] <jbailey> )
[15:51] <jbailey> If you feel really paranoid, setup an IPv6 tunnel and put it on that.
[15:51] <jbailey> Then you just use IPv6 at the conference to access it directly.
[15:56] <NCommander> jbailey, no, the problem is with the broken metapackage, the installer can't find a kernel to install
[15:57] <jbailey> Doesn't ia64 have Xen or kvm now?
[15:57] <jbailey> You could still do this remotely. =)
[15:57] <NCommander> If the ia64 has kvm, I'll leave it on while I travel
[15:57] <NCommander> jbailey, can you check for me? (I'm kinda packing ATM)
[15:58] <jbailey> NCommander, http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Status
[15:58] <jbailey> IT's listed as "In Progress"
[15:58] <NCommander> bah
[16:02] <NCommander> jbailey, probably staying w/ Hardy until karmic comes out is the sanest move
[16:02] <jbailey> Eh, you're doing development on it.
[16:02] <jbailey> You want to be bleeding edge or karmic won't work either.
[16:03] <NCommander> jbailey, well, I'm going to fix karmic's kernel while I'm traveling
[16:03] <NCommander> But if I'm going to build CD images, I need to check it before we release
[16:03] <NCommander> jbailey, we do have a ia64/hardy image now anyway :-)
