No FPU, emulation broken. Unless you want to recompile the whole system. At least that's what they told me. And I couldn't get mine to boot the kernel 2.6.18 or any before that. And those who did get it to work previously (by rebuilding with the special emulation ) did I read have problems with it going into a coma... The macs I do have running it are quadra630 and quadra605 (same as performa475). You need some memory too. To make the installer go OK suggest 32MB minimum. ≈
