Thank you very much, with that, you'd be running the backbone of our autobuild system! I am very much interested in an AIX node: that's one of the UNIX branches I have no access to at the moment. I think we could have 2..4 CEC systems and a few ST systems. Root creds: thank you, I appreciate the trust! I don't necessarily need root, it's a quesiton of who sets up/maintains the autotest host systems. If the system has the basic software installation ready (cc, libc, etc), the actual autobuild thing runs as a plain user. But with sufficient permissions for kvm, qemu doesn't need root either. The old hardware offer is very nice too, thanks! We could maybe set up a system that we run (the semi-automatic) MS tests on those a few weeks before a pcb-rnd release. Today I'm spending my time on trying to develop the ST/MS variant of the autobuild system. Once I have that, I will contact you in private. Best regards, Igor2
