It's basically incompetent northbridge design.
No, that means the HW is a Piece Of Shit !

What a PPC linux kernel hacker thinks about the Articia : Comment 35 of 68 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Sven Luther on 15-Jun-2004 10:06 GMT | In reply to Comment 17 (Olegil): Hey Olegil, don't be a morron. This was in the space of the debian-powerpc forum, and not in the space of hate throwing amiga related forums. I didn't meant it like that, and i told you so. It was a friendly teasing, nothing more, and i told that in said email.
I only saw an AmigaONE once, in Oldenbourg in 2003, and it was not able to install debian, dying because of a IDE related OOPS. I mentioned this, but also told that i believed this was probably a early board with some problems or something such, the same as there were early buggyer pegasos boards. I don't really care about all of this, but please don't speak such behind my back.
Friendly,
Sven Luther |
