I was wondering what the status of the M68K port of linux is. I know
that someone at some time was porting to the amiga or atari since there
is files in the kernel distribution for these but has there been
successes here like there has been for the PC?

My interest is to see if linux can be ported to a M68K architecture -
specifically the Motorola MVME177 (or MVME176) VME-based single board
computer.

I'd appreciate anyone responding and letting me know what the status of
this port is or where I can read up on it.

Thanks in advance for any tips.
