Hi Guys， We have finish compiling stage3 for ppc64 (little-endian).Here is the link:

Now we are going to build LiveCD using stage3. Could you help to give some demo or a guide for building LiveCD? That will help we a lot to make effort.

Thanks ~

I have applied to osuosl for an ibm power8 ppc64le node. I've put myself down as the point-of-contact. I asked for openstack gui access and will try to build a system using Leno's stage3. I'm not sure what the env looks like right now, but i assume i'll have to boot off a cd image. I'll use debians. I guess I could be macho and try to build everything from scratch, cross compile a kernel and all, but .... time.

Has anyone tried qemu simulating ppc64le on amd64? Lu I thought you said you tried on x86 and it didn't work.
