fedora on a alpha server.

[David Drew]

hi,  has anyone had any joy installing fedora on a alpha processor based
system?

[Michael Mansour]

I remember a few months back I asked a similar
question, and a weblink was provided to me which did
specify that some FC developers were porting packages
to run on the Alpha.

Not sure how far they have gotten with this, but I'd
be keen to know since I run Debian on my Alphaserver
at the moment.

Michael.

Any news?

Or a public place where that development takes place?

Hi !

Maybe offtopic,

	Personaly i started to work on something like FC2 on alphas as hobby, it can be checked
out:

ftp://ftp.rdsor.ro/pub/Linux/Distributions/AlphaLinux/rawhide/alpha

	It has latest tools, including nptl on glibc is something like FC2T{1,2}, it looks stable
i use kde
on it as workstation without problem.

	If want, can play with it, from an RH7.2-{7.3} is upgradable step by step to this tree.

	Never heared from anyone except M Harris, but nothing happened as far as i know.

I'd be very interested in learning how you got to this
stage, could you please let me (us) know since I
currently run Debian on the Alpha I have but would
much rather run FC1/2 on it instead, since I know
these distributions much much better.

Could you keep my email also and email me personally
maybe with a set of general instructions on how you go
this to work? as I'd love to implement this asap on my
Alpha and help test for the FC1 community.

Thanks.

Michael.
