 If you have some harddisk space left, then you can install Linux on one
 of your MACs.

I know, but this is not really an option for such a virtual company as 
ours - I have never physically worked on any of my build hosts as they are 
located in Sweden, while I work from Germany. So I am a bit hesitant to 
have to rely on remote reboots. In addition to that it would complicate 
our build process, as we currently build all binaries on all platforms in 
parallel.

  I have not decided which Linux Distribution to use,
  though - maybe Yellowdog?
 
 My recommendation would be, as always, Debian. :-)
 But thats a metter of taste.
 
 You can install nearly every distro on PPC.
 Good examples are: YellowDog, Mandrake, Red Hat, Suse, Gentoo, Debian

OK, thanks for the info!

  Unfortunately my favourite Linux distribution (SuSE)
  does not support the PPC platform anymore :(
 
 SUSE has very good PPC support.
 IBM even recommands SUSE and RedHat together with their big POWER-machines.
 For PPC you need to use the SUSE Server version.

Which unfortunately is only available when you pay big bucks for it. I 
have to check, if there are other ways :)

 I have tried Yellow Dog on one of my MACs.
 = the install was a piece of cake.

OK, good to know.

 On my Pegasos ( www.pegasosppc.com ) I'm very happy with Debian.
 The Pegasos is a really nice, geeky machine.
 With a Pegasos you could release binaries for MorphOS as well. :-)

Thanks, will look into that as well!

Bye,
LenZ

Hallo Lenz,


 From: Lenz Grimmer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Any chance to offer binaries for PowerPC Linux as well ? (Preferable
  tgz)
 
 Yes, we plan to offer Linux/PPC binaries in the near future - we're
 currently working on purchasing a system for that.

If you have some harddisk space left,
then you can install Linux on one of your MACs.
