> Does Mandrake 8.1 PPC CD boot on a M4753 Wallstreet upgraded with a > Powerlogix Blue Chip 500 Mhz? Mandrake 8.1 is not out for PPC yet AFAIK. Linux works fine on my wallstreet II [512k L2 cache] w/ powerlogix blue chip 466 MHz [now 1mb L2]. I use MacOS 8.6 and BootX. MacOS can choose to view lcd or external monitor which linux picks up but I know of no way to switch once in linux. Mac-on-linux works well. I do not know whether the CD will auto-boot -- you may need to set up BootX instead but once you install linux will work just fine. I know another guy who has used linuxPPC on his wallstreet + powerlogix 500Mhz. Good luck. Q.
M4753 Wallstreet
Does Mandrake 8.1 PPC CD boot on a M4753 Wallstreet upgraded with a Powerlogix Blue Chip 500 Mhz?
