it's all about the documentation. if you can get it, boringing up a new
kernel for a new architecture can go from impossible to very doable.
it's still a lot of work, and it can be hard to sit down and spend a week
finding that one little bit that prevents anything from working. good
luck, nonetheless. more architectures is definately moar better.
