I'm starting out on a PowerMac dual G5. It comes pre-formatted with the OS, and I'll probaly reformat it to my liking, but I am wondering how I can set up the partitioning. I want to use various flavors of Linux (YDL, gentoo, and debian, maybe knoppix) and FreeBSD.
a little off topic but im not sure how function freebsd is on powerpc. you will definately have better luck with openbsd and netbsd.
freebsd is traditionally focused on intel chips and high performance thereon (fair enough), openbsd security, netbsd portability.
that doesnt mean that they ignore security or performance but thats the way they want to focus their projects. and good on them. we can all learn from eachother.
as for different flavours of linux, its all just linux with different installers, init and control scripts and possbily different package management. i just stick with debian - but im like that.
