I was planning on getting MkLinux going, but apparently, the opengroup site with the software has been taken down.  Does anyone have the disk image that I could ftp?  Also, is everyone booting off the network (for development purposes)?

Don't just wait, get involved!  :-)  There are several models of 715,
btw, he doesn't necessarily have the one model of 715 which mkLinux
won't work with.  I do though!

binfmt_som is coming on quite well, I'll hopefully have a first cut
released by tomorrow.  I'm not quite sure how it will tie in with
the rest of the code yet.
