I'd like to get the webpage into a little better shape, and to do that, I could really use some help. One of the big things the prep webpage is missing is a FAQ list. What I could really use.. are either questions, or answers, that people think would be nice to have in the FAQ. If you don't know the answer, thats just fine, post the question, and I'll try to figure it out and add an answer to the FAQ. If you know the answer, it would help alot to have that to. Any help that you can provide for the webpage stuff would be greatly appreciated, as it gives me more time to hack on the port itself. Right now I'm trying to make sysinst sane to get rid of the arcane procedure currently required to install prep. Just as an FYI, here is my current TODO list: Get sysinst working. Clean up old cruft in the bootloader to try and make it smaller. Cut down the size of the INSTALL kernel so it fits on one floppy again. Test installation out, make sure it all works nicely. Fix problems booting on the PowerStack E1 Fix root device recognition when booting from an ISA we network card Port prep to the mcp750 Port prep to the mvmeppc machines Fix audio attachments. If you have something to add to that.. speak up. Or speak up if you have any questions about any of it. My goal is to make sure at least the first 4 there get in NetBSD 4.0. --- Tim Rightnour <[email protected]> NetBSD: Free multi-architecture OS http://www.netbsd.org/ Genecys: Open Source 3D MMORPG: http://www.genecys.org/
