Archived from groups: linux>gentoo>user (more info?)

Hi. I have an IBM workpad z50, and I am curious if there is a gentoo
port that could possibly run on it. If not, what can I do to get one
started? Also, if there is a better list to ask on, please let me know.

You may want to ask the question on gentoo-laptop too, but this
question is OK here too. I would suggest you take a look at the Gentoo
MIPS page [1] though I would imagine that its going to be hard to find
anything that is going to fit well onto a 16MB ram disk that was
designed to be a thin client. Even so... a google for linux 16mb ram
turns up some interesting and promising results [2][3]

I actually have 48 mb of ram in the z50, and it runs netbsd just fine, I
was just wondering if there had ever been any progress past the linux-vr
stuff that ran on it but didn't support more than 16 ram, I think this
was stuff happening around 2000... anyway, just hoping someone might
have an idea.

Mike, thanks for the links..
