Linux PPC removes support for CHRP (e.g. Pegasos)
The maintainers of the PowerPC port of the Linux kernel are planning to remove support for CHRP ("Common Hardware Reference Platform") systems. The Pegasos/Pegasos 2 systems from bplan are among those affected. However, this change will have no effect on the PowerPC computers from Eyetech, ACube and A-EON: here the community has always been responsible for kernel adaptations.
