There are five PPC subarchitectures of Linux: * CHRP-compliant PowerPC machines * PCI-based Power Macs * PReP-compliant PowerPC machines * Amigas with PowerPC upgrade cards * 8xx embedded systems PowerPCs Unfortunately, non-PowerMac PowerPC hardware is either nearly impossible to find (in the US at least) or expensive. SMP PowerMacs are also expensive. In any case, Linux doesn't support SMP on a very wide range of PowerPC hardware. -- Joel "Espy" Klecker Debian GNU/Linux Developer <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://web.espy.org/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
