The main site for ports is <http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/>. You can
find the Hardy Heron desktop build for powerpc at
<http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/8.04/release/>.

Unfortunately, that site seems to be running really slowly this
morning; even worse than yesterday. If you can't get it to load, email
me privately and I'll send you the .torrent file directly.

Never forget Google's "site:" operator to search all of ubuntu.com
(including its subdomains)!

Have the courage to be ignorant of a great number of things, in order to
avoid the calamity of being ignorant of everything.
