That shouldn't be a big problem. Ulf Karlsson has set up the following
web page for m/c access:

You should direct these questions to linux-origin;
some of the key people in random order are: Ralf Baechle,
Kanoj Sarcar and Ulf.
I compile on dbear.engr, with "ARCH=mips64" added to the make line.
Kanoj gives me sources, but you should be able to get them
from a CVS repository (details not known to me). If you want
a recent source snap, find them at:
dbear.engr:/build2/ananth/mips64xfs/linux.0705
Let's carry over this discussion to linux-origin@oss ...
For anyone (from slinx-xfs) interested in the on-goings,
please subscribe to that list.
