Add ARM support to debian repo
Last modified: 2011-11-04 09:25:36 UTC
The SBS deb works fine for ARM systems running Debian or Ubuntu. However, adding it to the sources.list to activate the repo causes: W: Failed to fetch http://debian.slimdevices.com/dists/unstable/main/binary-armel/Packages.gz 404 Not Found [IP: 8.12.202.126 80] I'm not sure if the fix is to just create a symlink in the repo from binary-armel to the existing files, or if it's more complicated than that. Either way, with Sheevaplug and other ARM platforms increasing in popularity, it would be nice if this worked.
Adding Andy to cc because I think you use a Sheevaplug so you might be inclined to fix this, especially if it really is as simple as a symlink :)
Workaround is to use the following in sources.list: deb [arch=i386] http://debian.slimdevices.com stable main
