I know this (see port-m88k), but:

I'd say that most of the purely machine-dependent code is in.  There's 
about 1600 patch-lines outstanding that I need to get into MI code, 
mostly related to stack direction and SCSI support.  This stuff needs
tech-kern@ review so it might take a little while.

As a teaser though, yesterday I did get a machine to boot multiuser
with shared libraries.  Look for a new snapshot and toolchain package
probably sometime in the next week.

Linux is already there. I saw a 712/100 running complete with X11 at the
LinuxTag. But as I don't like Penguins I prefere to wait for Matt... ;-)
