Isn't this the last version for the PPC chip? How hard/what is needed to install the intel versions of newer onto PPC chips?
It is the last "normal" boxed-version. For my one I've recompiled SuSE 8.2 on PPC with a lot of updates (kernel 2.4.23 with alsa 1.0rc2, gcc 3.3.1, kde 3.1.4, OOo 1.1, IBM J2SDK 1.4.1, ... all security updates and so on) and packages not included in the IA32 version (for example pmud, pbbuttons). I've asked SuSE for month for allowance to make it public. I've got a lot of good response from developers and some help, when I had problems. But there's no response from SuSE's (or Novell's) lawyers. I don't wan't to say it's a complete distribution. I don't have handbooks or special installation routines, but it's a pool of > 3000 RPMs and I think it would be a good base to do the missing things. And it's running stable on my old PowerBook G3. -- Machs gut | http://www.iivs.de/schwinde/buerger/tremmel/ | http://packman.links2linux.de/ Manfred | http://www.knightsoft-net.de
