About 2 years ago I had MK Linux running on a mac 9500. MK Linux was red hat based and I remember having apache, some ftp daemon, netscape ( but it wasn't the most current version ) and afterstep running. I didn't really use that box for anything except staging a few small sites and playing some cds. Getting X to run on that machine was really easy and so was the sound setup. MK Linux wasn't (isn't?) that well supported. I scrapped that for BeOS, but I didn't really like it. I was going to try yellow dog (also red hat based), but I left that job and no longer had a mac that I could experiment on, so I never looked into it further. I think yellow dog only supports PPC +, and not 68k. One other thing I remember was that the machine had to be dual boot with macos or it wouldn't work. I don't know if this has changed by now. Hmm, maybe I should pick up a used PPC box and start playing again. ~jacque Bill Layer wrote: > Is anyone on the list running Linux on Macintosh hardware, either 68K or PPC? > I'm getting ready to start playing with Mac68K Linux, and I was looking for > some *local* advice & feedback on using Linux on the Mac. > > So far, it looks like Debian is the only game in town..? > > My main question is, what software (that might traditionally be used on x86 > Linux) can I expect to work, and what should I *not* expect to work? > > -- > Bill Layer > <b.layer at vikingelectronics.com> > _______________________________________________ > tclug-list mailing list > tclug-list at lists.real-time.com > https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
