Hello,

I know my ideas to main stream Gentoo on arm, are not very popular
with gentoo devs.

A while back there was talk of Gentoo and Ubuntu exploring
some deeper form of cooperation; a merger of sorts. Surely
an interesting idea. Curiously, Ubuntu seems to be able to
publish documents, very easily.

The point of this message, is to share the Ubuntu vision
for (Ubuntu) Linux on ARM; where the embedded and the
computer versions of Linux are on a collision coarse.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM

I hope you enjoy Ubuntu's vision for Linux on Arm.
In essence, it will soon be as ubiquitous as x86,
or at least many believe this scenario is plausible.

On this link above, we see where TI, Freescale and Nvidia
are all lining up for a piece of the corps (the x86 corps
that is).

enjoy!
James

I wasn't aware of that. Do you have some info on this?

Publication isn't an issue. We also have http://wiki.gentoo.org where
you can quickly set up and publish documents.

The apr 1 info, may be the key parameter. I remember reading snippets
in several locations.... but nothing to recall now. I did not
really focus on the issue at the time, so it is completely
possible it was but a lark, I did not discern.....

Still, an interesting idea, some would think. I have taken
the path of setting up raid under Ubuntu, as suggested to me
by a few old gentoers. While visiting the Ubuntu offerings,
it surprises me to see so many (gentoo) familiar folks bouncing
around and using Ubuntu, for a wide variety of purposes.
Quite a lively and social bunch over there at Ubuntu, many
old friends.....

Yes you are correct. Also, I did find the Ubuntu installation media
(alternate.iso) for explicitly setting up RAID, as part of the
native Ubuntu installation docs and media.

Furthermore, Ubuntu on arm boards; documents intended for the rank and
file users; very cool indeed.

I'm still looking for equivalents in Gentoo; maybe after grub-2
is stable on gentoo, we can get a singular document and matching
installation media for installing RAID from scratch.....

Also note,native ARM support for netbooks, laptop and lite-workstations
is coming to many linux distros. I just hope Gentoo leads
rather than follows in that regard. Surely the talent
is in the dev_pool to make it work, it's the documentation
that is the real challenge, imho.

sincerely,
James
