Currently Sun 3 support is the first platform option, as the Sun 3 MMU is
incompatible with standard Motorola MMUs. However, this means that
`allmodconfig' enables support for Sun 3, and thus disables support for all
other platforms.
...
I hope it isn't too heretical to ask whether Sun 3 support actually has
users and works?
Apollo support was broken for over 7 years without anyone noticing, and
it might not be the only m68k platform that is long unused.
Do you have any overview of which m68k platforms still have users?
At least 4 users for amiga and 2 for mac :-P
#rank name inst vote old recent no-files
42014 linux-image-2.6-amiga 4 0 0 0 4
53844 linux-image-2.6-mac 2 0 0 0 2
from http://popcon.debian.org/by_inst
I'm a mac m68k user (who is the other one ???)

OK OK, looks like I have to do the upgrade to 2.6 to get on this list
(currently running a self-compiled 2.4.30, with just the drivers I need
to have the smallest kernel footprint for the 16M RAM on my A2000) but I
do run popularity contest, so the common m68k packages that I use daily
should show up (mutt, apache, etc).
Also, I have found that NFS works nicely between my A2000 and my PC
linux box, thought you typically don't want to burn the RAM on the 8
processes it is going to default to. Apache, there are some ways to get
it to not use up all the RAM resources of the system too. If anyone is
interested, I could put together a list of apps that I have configured
to make the Amiga still be a useful box?
