I just put a script together last weekend for a powerpc netinst CD. I left a FIXME in it; maybe you could possibly get it to work with prep also. cvs.debian.org/boot-floppies/powerpc-specials/mini-iso.sh > PSS: If someone has technical questions pertaining to RS/6000 and pSeries > systems you can send them my way as well.

But they seem to be out-of-date; I wonder if someone could offer some suggestions as to what should go in and what should be ignored. (Or, better yet, patches to boot-floppies/documentation/en/* :^) The pieces I'm referring to are at cvs.debian.org/boot-floppies/powerpc-specials/install-chrp.en.sgml and cvs.debian.org/boot-floppies/powerpc-specials/install-prep.en.sgml -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
