Are the boot disks going to be "ready" for the upcoming relesae of powerpc-potato in February (it is still February isn't it ?) ?
I want to buy a PowerBook but am waiting for Debian to be officially released and with boot floopies to install on my PowerBook. I really do not want to preinstall any other OS like Yellowdog or LinuxPPC, before I can install Debian. Is Yaboot required ? I assume this is the equivalent of lilo on a x86 machine. Do I "have" to allocate a 800KB HFS partition on my hard disk ? I've installed Debian-2.1 on an intel machine once. All I needed was a boot disk and the base*tgz file. Will it be exactly the same for a powerpc machine ? Thanks, Brendan Simon.
