Hi! ...no, I don't have a happily booting VAX yet, let alone userland. But at least, I started the other night to cut out all the former patches (well, that resulted in one gigantic diff with about 1MB in size!) and chip it into pieces: jbglaw@jbglaw-dev:~/devel/sources/rediff$ ls -la total 984 drwxr-xr-x 2 jbglaw jbglaw 4096 2009-03-16 12:31 . drwxr-xr-x 9 jbglaw jbglaw 4096 2009-03-14 22:09 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 10778 2009-03-14 22:30 archtest.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 877855 2009-03-16 12:25 bigdiff.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 1085 2009-03-14 22:30 checkstack.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 859 2009-03-14 22:23 choose_correct_DEC_logo_on_fbdev.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 312 2009-03-14 22:17 gitignores.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 680 2009-03-14 22:20 insert_blank_in_lkkbd.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 1249 2009-03-14 22:21 insert_blank_in_vsxxxaa.diff -rw-r--r-- 1 jbglaw jbglaw 76940 2009-03-16 12:30 ods2.diff `bigdiff.diff' is The One And Only, as you may guess. It contains docs, generic VAX support, all the header files, support for the single CPUs. I'm not sure when I'll continue to cut it down, but probably in two night's time. (I'm on the FOSSGIS (http://www.fossgis.de/konferenz/wiki/Main_Page) conference for the next days, but hopefully I'll be able to do some hacking at my hotel.) But all in all, I'm keen to see a booting VAX soon. (Maybe without SCSI and network for the first days, but that'll all show up.) At least there's a compiler that seems well-working, thanks to Matt and Maciej.
