Description Matt Turner gentoo-dev

We need some n32 stages, specifically
 big-endian
  mips3 - for Indy and Indigo2 systems
  mips4 - for newer SGI and other big-endian systems
  mip64 - (maybe) for other big-endian systems (eg, Sibyte)
 little-endian
  mips4 - for Cobalt systems
  loongson - for Loongson systems
  mips64 - for upcoming Loongson 3a systems

Pushed plain mips{3,4} n32 stages into /space/experimental-local/mips.

My plan here is to work out the kinks in multilib, and then within the multilib profile have o32, n32, and n64 subprofiles which select the primary ABI.

From there, we just ship multilib (primary ABI: n32) stages that allow users to chose which ABI they want or get rid of multilib all together.

I think the multilib profiles are in good shape.

I'm going to start some multilib stage builds to see how they go.

Multilib big endian mips3, mips4, and r10k stages built.

Comment 4 Matt Turner gentoo-dev

Big endian mips64 stages built.

Comment 5 Matt Turner gentoo-dev

Little endian mips3, mips4, and mips64 stages built.

into /space/experimental-local/mips/stages and removed all the old stages in that folder with the exception of stage3-loongson2f_n32-20100725.tar.bz2*, which isn't technically needed (and definitely advised against) given that we have mipsel3 stages with the loongson workaround flags.

Marking fixed. :)
