But seriously: please keep calm, nobody said we will never support it
We currently working on a V4 version with full PI/AMD K6 support, but it will definitley not included in 4.000 because of some lib dependences. Please check regular the announcement forum for news and release dates for a PI/K6 enabled V4.
It's good to hear that K6's will be supported, I was just about to post on the hackers forum "how can I slipstream my own kernel into ASL"
Dumb question: I am running ASL 3.2 up2date'ing it's little heart out, will I reboot one day and find it won't get back on its feet? Or is everyone talking about ASL v4?
Dumb Question #2: When v4 is ready to support K6-2's will I need to reconfigure my whole system, or can it just upgrade, also will my existing home liscence grandfathered over or do I need to get another?
PS[:D]on't forget the little guy astaro it's the linux way to be efficient as possible and with my 3 computer network my K6-2 200MHz is 90-99% too much CPU already.
we have a beta snapshot ISO-image (asl-4.107.iso.gz) of the upcoming version ASL 4.007 with support for P1/K6/C3/APIC ready for download on this FTP-Server:
Installation of backup files from version 3.2 and V4 will work as well as backup files from this beta version on the final 4.007. Pattern Up2Date is enabled but not System Up2Date.
Whats new in ASL 4.007: - new kernel (changed NIC driver) - new glibc - support for Compaq SmartArray 5 and Adaptec I2O RAID
We would like to read your reports about this beta ISO in this UBB thread - thx in advance.
After the final 4.007 announcement we will release an auto upgrade facility. This will allow registered customers to automatically elect to (1) stay with either the v2 or V3 branch; or (2) update to V4 without requiring a CD load.
