OK, Thanks everyone for the hosting offers. I had several offers to host, but little interest in using cooker, so perhaps it's a wasted effort anyway. I forgot I don't even need that much space, just kernels and stage1. I put it on my web space: http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~sbenedict/cooker-ppc/MandrakeLinux-cooker.ppc.iso http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~sbenedict/cooker-ppc/MandrakeLinux-cooker.ppc.md5 My experience: Couldn't get stage2 from a mirror site, even though it was there. Local ftp worked fine. So, I mirrored one of the mirrors locally yesterday and did an install tonight. Issues: old advertising graphics package errors: popt rpm perl-URPM dosfstools sawfish libsoup3 libqtvision1 librep rep-gtk abiword MHonArc librep9 tcptraceroute kvirc sawfish-themes gnome-tiles sympa kwintv gnome-network popt and rpm showed up each time it was time to install additional packages (dhcp setup, X setup etc.) On boot, I dropped into maintenance mode, due to no devfsd. I also discovered the was no /etc/yaboot.conf, just the example one. There was no error related to setting up the bootloader during install. I couldn't mount my bootstrap to grab my original one, as I was booting a different kernel than the installed one, so no modules. (shared /boot). I have to believe the above issues are due to either the packages errors or a mismatch between the installer libs and the cooker system, as the installer stage1/stage2 are the same images as 9.1, with just edited text for 9.2. Anyway, it's out there if anyone wants it. -- Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft
