RS/6000 Model 170 Boots Linux

Hi All,

  Here is the boot log of an RS/6000 Model 170 which for the first time booted
Linux this past Friday.

  If I recall correctly it's a 375 Mhz Power 3 box. It's kinda weird as you'll
notice below the OpenPIC line indicates there are 8 processors here... well
there isn't, it's just a single processor box. Patches to be posted shortly.

It doesn't mean that the box has 8 CPUs, but that the OpenPIC can handle 8
CPUs. So the weird thing is that the OpenPIC can handle only one interrupt
source. Would you really want to build an OpenPIC for only one interrupt
source?

FYI, on my LongTrail it says `2 CPUs and 20 IRQ sources', which is correct for
the OpenPIC in the Apple Hydra.

Hi!

That was how it was before Commodore and Atari died. We've been united since
Linux/m68k exists :-)

Hmmm... most Amiga users I know don't care for 68k anymore :) But I suggest
we drop that matter now... :) Probably not really interesting for most people
on the list :)))
