I'm wondering if any of the folks who build off very old Red Hat (7.x) like MIPS, Sparc and ARM have tried bootstrapping FC from that base and what approach they found best. I'm pondering setting a box crunching through Fedora for S/390 but initially its a maze of twisty little dependancies between libraries, tools and compilers.
I'm wondering: is there some public documentation about doing a full rebuild for Fedora? Some build scripts would also help people to rebuild for the more exotic architectures (or optimization flags and maybe attract a few gentoo users in the process ;)
Btw. The Aurora Sparc Linux distribution has a "rawhide" tree very close to Fedora.
