Dear Listers

I am new on this list and I appreciate your taking the time to read my message over.

I own the PPC machine with 768MB of RAM mentioned in the Subject header. I am not well versed in the command line nor linux for that matter. That being said, my other macs all run OSX 10.4.6 which I feel very comfortable with.

I am not expecting anyone here to provide me a step by step outline on the installation process of SUSE on this mac model, but a good link on the subject for complete newbies like myself would be well appreciated.

Mac Specific question: Could I ask anyone on the list with the same hardware configuration, to please send me feedback comparing MacOSX Panther (v10.3) compares to SUSE in terms of overall performance.

I hope to hear back from someone regarding either the link or the testimonial, thanks.

Alex, Although I'm sure there are some PPC users hanging out on this list, you would certainly have better luck with your PPC questions on the PPC SuSE list. You can subscribe to it from the SuSE site for mail lists, as I guess you did here or write directly to: suse-ppc-subscribe@suse.com There are a lot of knowledgeable folks there that can help with your installation and questions. I think you'll find some installation instructions on the mirror you downloaded the opensuse-ppc files. I also think you'll find that Linux runs quite speedy on your G3. I suspect noticeably faster than your OS 10.x, since Apple does some things to choke down the actual Unix running under the pretty GUI. regards, Lee -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
