Calling the different kernel trees 'several linux-based operating system kernels' is maybe a bit too strong wording; but yes, 2.4 kernels from Linus are not working well (at best...) on PPC. Currently, for powermacs, your best bet is using BenH's rsync tree on penguinppc.org (do: rsync -auvz --delete penguinppc.org::linux-2.4-benh linux-2.4.benh and you'll get a local copy) Cheers Michel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Michel Lanners | " Read Philosophy.
