I’ve had the best luck with gentoo, mainly because it builds everything

I think that may work on P7, but not entirely sure from the website which I
just read.



One of my long term plans was to revive the ppc64be port for Debian, but
my main challenge is that I don’t have enough P7 machines to build enough
of a package set to pull this off.

Are there any people here willing to help me with that?



If I end up with a P7 booted under some form of Linux, I'll discuss that
with you.
