Hi here,

are there any Pegasos users using Gentoo?

Especially the hardware platform Pegasos II?

I am looking for experiences about building an own kernel for this
architecture. I compile them by myself for some years, but I think I could
be better if I find someone else who is building kernels for Pegasos
II. I am interested to exchange/talk about config files and so on.

Unfortunately Gentoo seems to have dropped kernel support for Pegasos
for some years. No installation disk contains a kernel for this
hardware.

Bye
Johannes

Hi Johannes,

I'm not a Pegasos user, but if you can get other Linux distribution running
on your system (e.g., some old version of Debian), you will be able to 
build Gentoo from its environment.
