I just got a part time job where I'm working with powerpc's at work. We are currently running yellow dog linux on our servers. I'd like to convert to debian but I'd like to try it out on a non critical machine first. Packed back in the closet they have a couple of powerpc 6100/60 computers with zip and cd-roms.
Being a complete newbie to macintosh's I was wondering if I downloaded the debian-ppc distro how it would fair on these machines? I don't have a clue as to what the hard drive or ram is like yet (the system administrator says he thinks the hard drives are only 40MB but he's not sure, no documentation in sight). In addition, if you guys could point me to some FM so I can RT that would be great. (we also have about 5 old Macs that only have floppy drives, if this turns out ok, maybe I can convince him to give them to me;-) can you say cluster experiment;-) Anyway, any help or pointers you guys have would be great, especially with regard to the 6100/60s. Regards, Jesse
