I've been debating with myself about installing GNU/Linux on my iBook, and now that I have a new model (yet _another_ replacement) the thought occurs to me again that maybe I should go for it. While I don't think I would miss OS X very much, I would be kind of sad to say goodbye to Fink! This leaves me with some questions.
Has anyone out there had experience slowly stripping the Apple OS down until eventually it is gone and you've replaced it with a totally free OS? Can Fink operate from within GNU/Linux on a dual boot machine? Any general experiences about GNU/Linux on PPC that seem worth sharing? Can someone more knowledgeable than me help me understand which parts of the OS X system are free as in freedom and which are not? Would it be possible to have a free OS that wasn't GNU/Linux but instead GNU/Darwin? Would Fink ever offer a replacement for the kernel?? ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
