Gentoo/MIPS for Cobalt

Files

Here, you'll find netboot, stages, and packages for MIPS-based Cobalt servers.

The stages here may also be useful for those wishing to port Gentoo to other MIPS machines running MIPS4 ISA little-endian CPUs. Note that they do not work on MIPS32 CPUs.

• Netboot Images
• Binary Packages -- for upgrading existing installations.
• Stage Tarballs
• Kernel Images -- Tarballs of compiled kernels, ready to be unpacked into /.
