18:16.33mohamedHi all, I need to have a linux kernel for a new processor architecture (I mean by a new processor architecture a one like arm or sparc or ...) which is not included in the linux kernel sources. I thought I could have linux on it by developing a new arch for the kernel but I don't know how or who can help. could you please guide me through this. any help?
18:20.55adyerjust curiuos, what arch is it?

22:28.28mohamedadyer: it's a new arch which I've developed (so simple) just want to try if it works?
22:29.59adyermohamed: seems like running something simpler than linux would be easier.  Anyways the first item in getting linux running is a port of gcc & binutils to the new arch.
22:30.54mohamedadyer: could you give me any hint to do so (port gcc & binutils to the new arch) ?
22:32.21adyermohamed: I wouldn't know where to start.  I think that alone is a huge job.
22:33.22mohamedmohamed: well I thought so as well, any way thank you for your time :)
22:34.00adyermohammed try googling 'porting gcc' for some info
22:34.09adyers/mm/m
22:34.40mohamedadyer: ok I will; what is s/mm/m ;)
22:35.10adyersed speak to substitute one m where there are 2 (I mispelled your name)
22:36.02mohamedadyer: nice I didn't know that :)
22:36.34adyermohamed: its a 'vi' survival skill
22:37.40mohamedadyer: visual tools is much easier to me than vi I even use gvim :/
