Hello All,
After some time I was able to cook new test boot cd image. It contains
something that hopely become AC2. :)
There are no install packages on the image, so the "rescue" mode is one
that you could test.
The new kernel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 with Jay's patches to support big
Alphas and TGA video adapter is used.
The smp version of that kernel doesn't work yet. Everything is compiled
by gcc 4.0.1 (although there is an issue - it
still generates the code that produced unaligned access exception
(hopely it will get fixed)).
I would like to ask the interested people to try to boot test boot image
and post the results here.
So far, it does boot on my 164LX (SRM).
Here is the link:

Thank you,
