Hi,
I'm interested in running wheezy on my machines when I get them. Almost all my other machines are also running wheezy, so being able to run it on Parallella machines too would be very useful for things like running distcc or openmpi. The fact that I know they're all running (more or less) the same versions of software makes it very appealing.
My question is what you needed to do to the basic Debian install image to "parallellalize it" (to coin a phrase)? I know you say that this is unofficial/unsupported, but I'm guessing that there can't be too many "hacks" (if any) required to get all the Parallella-specific stuff working on any Linux distro: probably the kernel, maybe bootloader (u-boot?) and the userland stuff like SDK, and any daemons or link/loader utilities for managing the Ephiphany cores?
Basically, I'd prefer to have some vanilla version of Debian to work with (rather than, say, Ubuntu), but your warning makes me worry that stuff might break, suffer bit rot or just generally not be well supported as time goes on. If I knew what you had to change to get Debian to work, then I could use that info to fix things later on if they did go awry....
Thanks in advance
edit: I found the document, so I guess that answers my general questions about what I need to "parallellalize" a generic linux distro, but were there any specific steps/tweaks needed to get Debian wheezy in particular to work?
