I may be able to help, have installed Debian on two Macs (PowerPC 7200s) that I use as servers. One is still running as a web server (It did have an uptime of nearly 1 year until I boloxed up a ipchains rule and had to reboot it), the other one was decommisioned last week, it was a mail and domain server (it had load issues so replaced with a honking big Athlon). I set these up over a year ago so my memory is a bit poor. I see that Mandrake has a PPC port which should work well. Maybe someone could download the iso's, and bring them along? I think in this situation we have to stress the "all care no responsibilty" rule, and dual boots may be problematic.

Well, it had to happen we've been asked about installing Linux on an Imac. Is there *anybody* on the list who can come on Saturday who could help here? I belive the distros are: Linux PPC and Yellow Dog does anybody know anything about these? I haven't really got a clue with Apple stuff and it would be kind of uncool to turn this guy away. Anybody please Regards, Zane
