Hi Colinux-devs, Firstly many thanks to you all for colinux :). Now we have made some custom modifications for colinux and added one of our products http://www.gluster.org/glusterfs.php and Fuse User Space libraries, also Samba with some cross cross compile patches. The modified full source tarball is here http://harsha.80x25.org/colinux/colinux-glusterfs-20071102.tar.gz Installation of our product is similar to the kernel module installation during initial boot of Guest OS. Mount C:\Program Files\coLinux and untar the archived tar balls on the /mnt/linux . The archive will be "apps.tgz" inside the colinux installed directory on windows and a modified initrd.gz for the same purpose. Now coming to the point: We are having concerns about having a x86_64bit port for colinux as currently it's only 32bit which is supported. As we develop Cluster Filesystems, HPC related OS and tools all our High Performance Computing servers are mostly 64bit. I would like to know is there a road map to get this working? or Can we be of any help in porting it to x86_64bit if you don't have ample amount of time. Kindly provide some pointers?
