Quickstep booting again.
A week or two ago, quickstep suddenly didn't live anymore on the network. I couldn't ssh into it, I couldn't even ping it. Since, for various reasons, I couldn't physically access quickstep until today, it remained down -- meaning that for a while, there was no m68k/experimental buildd anymore (quickstep's the only box who does that).
I just went to look at quickstep's console to find out what's going wrong. Apparently there was a kernel panic (jaiks!) after the box had had an uptime since the end of Februari -- the weekend after FOSDEM, specifically.
It's now running fsck over its 18GB ext2 partition. At 25Mhz, this will probably take over an hour. Yes, I'll convert it to ext3 once it's up.
