Appreciated your efforts and comments.
1. We've successfully compiled stage 3 for ppc64le. The stage 3 covers
most useful functionalities:
- GNU tool chains. e.g. automake, autoconf, gcc & glibc.
- Normally use Portage, e.g. emerge, ebuild & python
- Normally chroot in this stage 3.
- Not included linux kernel & bootloader yet.
2. We believe to make Gentoo support ppc64le, we still need to compile
kernel and bootloader
- Which version of kernel provided by Gentoo would you suggest us to use?
As to Ubuntu, there will be many patches to make the kernel
workable, so how to patch
our Gentoo kernel to make it work for ppc64le?
- Which version of grub suitable for ppc64le ? Is there any patches to
ppc64le grub ?
3. When the gentoo we make out workable on ppc64le, we would like to know
the process of
making it officially supported by Gentoo community
- For each arch, do we have a subteam to verify the packages? If so, how
to reach these guys?
- For hardware environment, does anyone have Power8 systems ?
