Yeah, YDL is close, but they really don't have any great shakes support
for any PPC hardware != Macintosh. That's why I was hoping that the
support for pSeries in RHEL AS would make a good porting base,
especially since the group here has done such an impressive job with
i386 and x86/64.
Anyone know what the future of YDL is going to be? Fedora, I assume?
I might be able to get YDL mostly working (it doesn't support most of my
hardware) enough to start rebuilding WBEL, though.
