Hi

I'm new to linux/Ubuntu and cannot install onto my old apple mac 5500/275

I have met all apparent system/memory requirments but my machine does not recognise either the live demo cd rom or the full-install as bootable discs.

I have even re-formatted my hard-drive to no avail... Does anyone have any suggestions??

Confused and dissapointed


What processor do these Apples use? Are you using the right Ubuntu to match it?

Just to follow up, you should be using the ubuntu-ppc cds. I'm not sure whether "boot from cd" is enabled on macs by default, so that may be something to look into...Ubuntu 5.04 does work on the 5500/275 at any rate.
