For what it’s worth, I’ve been trying to get some stages together the last few days. Thanks to solar and Brent, the ppc-stages are now coming along quite fast. I haven’t really tested them yet, but for what it’s worth, you’ll find stages based on Saturday’s snapshot (that is 200780105 for those not smart enough to take a look at the calendar) here for the following profiles: uclibc/ppc (normal/-softfloat) uclibc/ppc/hardened uclibc/x86 uclibc/x86/hardened hardened/amd64 hardened/amd64/nomultilib hardened/x86/2.6 (x86/i686) Now remember, this isn’t official release material. This is just MY effort ( for now) to provide current stages. ...

Well, as for replacing my current fileserver (which I seriously need to consider replacing), I’ll just pick up these things: 3WARE 9550SXU-8LP (that’s 399,00€) plus riser card VIA EPIA EK 8000EG (that’s 201,69€) Kingston ValueRAM DIMM 1 GB DDR-400 (that’s 57,00€) 4x Seagate ST31000340NS (that’s 279,00€ each - making a subtotal of 1.116,00€) So after browsing some more for a replacement for my current fileserver, I’d like to share the latest stages with you people. Thanks to Mike (who mentioned that binutils-2.18* already does the LDFLAGS="-Wl,-z,relro" part) I replaced it with "-Wl,-O1". Same old place, there’s fresh stages … (and thanks again to Mike, with working util-linux-2.13-r2). ...
