X-BeenThere: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Porting FreeBSD to the PowerPC List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 08 Nov 2010 17:01:16 -0000 All, The PowerPC release builds are now definitely broken. Previously we would merely create an invalid livefs ISO and I would simply not upload that. Now mkisofs is actually failing when it attempts to make the livefs ISO. This aborts the release build. It would really be good if someone can finally figure out the right set of options to give to mkisofs so that we have a bootable hybrid ISO, without it being roughly twice the size of a non-hybrid ISO image. Unfortunately, I lack the bandwidth to look into it myself, so as of now there won't be any snapshots or releases for PowerPC until this is resolved. FYI, -- Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
