Thanks! I found most of the stuff you pointed out. I also found a doc at:
http://www.dartmouth.edu/~jonh/lppc-serve/cache/572.html that shows how to bootstrap a system from a ydl or linuxppc.com port. Unfortunately (?) I have a new IMac DV and BootX doesn't work, I have to use yaboot. I've found some docs on ydl's site that show how to use it but when I try and supplement the debian kernel and ramdisk it gets ugly. Oh well, this is why Linux is fun, right? :-) -Todd Bortzmeyer wrote: > On Sunday 5 March 2000, at 9 h 27, the keyboard of Todd Shrider > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I'm pretty familiar with Linux, but very new to the powerpc world.
