Cool! right now g-i works on i386, amd64, ppc (partially), support for mips would be great!

Unfortunately i cannot help you with such platform, but i know Davide Viti had been working in the past to port g-i on ARM or MIPS (cannot remeber correctly right now).
Because the g-i is (hopefully) moving to DFB 1.0 soon, i suggest you perform preliminar tests with dfb 1.0 anf gtkdfb compiled against dfb 1.0 on aregular debian system.
Btw, i suggest you to cc debian-boot, as the most part of the development of the g-i takes place there.

Attilio
