Description Piet Veerboot 2006-03-31 01:57:53 UTC 
The experimental sparc64 tftpboot image located at:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~weeve/tftpboot/images/gentoo-sparc64-2005.0-20050717.tftpboot

BUG: Does not contain the raid0 raid1 raid5 modules anymore.
Request: Could ReiserFS - (and related tools) be included into the tftpbootimage?

Related to this: Why are the old images removed???
Comment 1 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-03-31 05:27:37 UTC 
No ReiserFS, it has issues for sparc, the netboot image size is limited and we don't even ship it in the LiveCD.
WRT to raid we gotta check with Weeve, he's currently building the netboot images and maybe forgot or something.
Old images are usually retired since new ones are supposed to be improved & better.
Comment 2 Andrew Gaffney (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-07-13 00:50:48 UTC 
This is fixed by the newer netboot image I built last year. It has the following options enabled in the kernel:

CONFIG_MD_RAID0=y
CONFIG_MD_RAID1=y
CONFIG_MD_RAID456=y
