Chapter 13. SunSITE Denmark

SunSITE Denmark is the main distribution site for both the Linux/m68k and Linux/APUS kernels (no, it's not a coincidence: both Jes and I studied at Aalborg University). There's lots of other good stuff there, and it's well worth a visit. You can access it by both HTTP and FTP (using the same hostname and paths).

You can find Linux/m68k related stuff (including the Linux/m68k FAQ) in the directory sunsite.auc.dk/ftp/local/os/linux/680x0/.

The Linux/APUS directory is sunsite.auc.dk/ftp/projects/apus/. This directory contains the following (and possibly more; have a look around):

The Linux/APUS kernel mailing list is also hosted by SunSITE Denmark. Send for help at linux-apus-help@sunsite.auc.dk. The list is also available via NTTP from sunsite.auc.dk (look for sunsite.linux.apus). Please read the section called Etiquette in Chapter 8 before posting to this list.

Linux/APUS Mirror Sites

The apus directory at SunSITE Denmark is mirrored a few places thanks to the people mentioned in parenthesis:

Poland (FTP): snickers.ek.univ.gda.pl/pub/apus (Bartek Kozakiewicz)

Italy (FTP): ftp.unina.it (Massimo Gais)

If you have the space (and time?) to make a mirror of either the apus directory at SunSITE Denmark or make an archive of the Linux/APUS kernel mailing list, please let me know. SunSITE Denmark is close and convenient to use for me, but that may not be so for others.
