Operating Systems and Porting / Re: [NEWS] AlmaLinux 8.6 is out

This may focus on FreeBSD, it is less fragmented ;-)

Personally, I have been testing FreeBSD on x86_64 for several weeks. It is good system.

From the perspective of a Polish customer, the price of the equipment increased by 6.5% in a month
At the beginning of February, I was determined to buy, but now I'm seriously considering it.

I understand that in that case I have to prepare Haiku build tools for ppc64, 32 bit architecture probably doesn't make much sense anymore.

Hi,
I am interested in Haiku on PowerPC / Power 9. Recently I even bought a Power Mac G5 D 1.8 GHz for pennies.
I have tried to compile what I can into a PPC architecture but with no success. System-build tools do not compile.
I tried on Haiku / 64 and Linux. There are construction errors in one of the macros. As far as possible, I will try to
overcome this problem this week.

I have a question if I understand the markings correctly:

ppc -> 32 bits big-endian,
ppcle -> 32 bits litle-endian
ppc64 -> 64 bits big-endian,
ppc64le -> 64 bits litle-endian?
