I have wired lan available pretty much everywhere I go. 9.10 worked pretty well for me on a G4 iMac, but I have not tried Lucid(aka 10.04) yet. The 9.10 went on a borrowed iMac, and I don't have access to it anymore. It worked fine for a couple of weeks of light usage. I suspect a PPC desktop machine would be better on Linux, just like desktop x86 machines have fewer problems.

Excuse me, i would like to know where can I download Kubuntu 9.04 for my PM G4, or any version of Kubuntu above V7, because Wherever I go, can't find any download links or anything. -- Sent from my Power mac G4 Sawtooth. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: 933 mhz G4 Quicksilver Powermac Dual boot?
Howdy, The one I'd recommend is: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/ports/releases/lucid/release/kubuntu-10.04-alternate-powerpc.iso It is listed on the page at: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/ports/releases/lucid/release/ This is the latest version. The installer is basically the debian installer, which is not as pretty as the normal installer, but has more options. For me, the big one is the ability to install onto encrypted partitions. This version is not listed on the master PowerPC list that Marc pointed to, for some reason.
