Linux-nvme Digest, Vol 41, Issue 1

[David Craven]

I thought I'd share the reply I got from the puredarwin mailinglist.
If Linux is a requirement for any of you guy's I suggest dumping the
macbook, I don't see any other options.

hello david,

thanks for joining the puredarwin mailinglist,
but i think we dont have any positive message to you about the source
code for your storage controller
the problem is that apple doesnt want that there will be more drivers
for darwin in the future more and more
all will be only available on osx only.
But does puredarwin work on the latest macbook model i dont know we
dont have any source to the latest macbook
model you would be welcome to try our latest puredarwin image
https://puredarwin.googlecode.com/files/puredarwinxmas.tar.xz
and try it out on your macbook.
If i found out any more infos for your controller i will mail it to
you, but for now i dont have any more infos.

cheers
ferdinand
