Hi All,

I released the alpha7 for our motherboards with P.A. Semi PA6T-1682M microprocessors for testing. Linus Torvalds added a lot of source code last night.

New: Linux git log

Download: vmlinux-4.3-alpha7-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2

Further information about motherboards with P.A. Semi PA6T-1682M microprocessors:
  • Electra: First development/eval board. Funky USB on localbus, plenty
    of PCI-e. Two GigE, one 10GigE XAUI. CompactFlash and IDE on localbus
    too. Usually shipped with a PCI-e SATA card and a USB card.
  • Chitra: Second edition dev/eval board. Moved SATA and USB on-board,
    and removed some of the localbus hardware. Might have routed three
    GigE out instead of 2.
  • Athena: Never released board with a smaller package chip, there's
    only a few of these around. It's similar to Chitra, and the silicon is the same.
  • Nemo: Released as AmigaONE X1000. With co-processor: "Xena" 500 MHz XCore XS1-L2 124 SDS
    and SB600 southbridge.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE test the RC1. AlicePPC has problems with the RC1 so I'd like to know if you have problems either.

Linus Torvalds wrote:On the filesystem side, the bulk of the changes (in lines of code) is the removal of the ext3 filesystem (with ext4 remaining to support ext3 layouts - but the separate ext3 codebase is gone).
I can confirm, that the ext4 driver works with my openSUSE 11.1 ext3 partition.

PLEASE test the RC1.
