Ok, I've had enough and now I have to add my $.11. Why are you bothering with Linux? NetBSD is the one to go with on 68k Macs. I've put it on my IIci and Q800 and both run flawlessly.

Re: linux m68k
In theory, yes. However, a lot of programs would have to be ported before A/UX was up to date enough to run Samba (Or most open-source programs for that matter). Right off the top of my head, I know A/UX would need gcc, make, SysV or BSD init system, and a netlink socket (Raw access to the network stack). Basically, you download the source to a program, run configure, then fix whatever configure complains about. Source that can check and see if it will run before you compile it, isn't that amazing?

Re: linux m68k
Hi Randy, Thanks for the info. I'll have a go soon to see if I can get it up and running. The only thing that may be a problem is the internal IDE drive in the PB 150 which may not be fully supported by the kernel. Edwin PB 150, 8 MB Ram, 120MB HD /rant Ok, I've had enough and now I have to add my $.11. Why are you bothering with Linux? NetBSD is the one to go with on 68k Macs. I've put it on my IIci and Q800 and both run flawlessly. Why go with linux? NetBSD is a mature UNIX for 68k Macs. The only drawback to it is the non-support for the oddball machines, IIvx and Q950, and non-FPU Quadra/Centris/LC machines. For further reference try here: http://www.netbsd.org/Ports/mac68k/ And for you info Edwin, there is an Xserver for this port. But you will need some memory for it. And judging from LEMs info on this powerbook, you just may be able to install NetBSD on your machine unless it has funny I/O stuff. rant -- Randy _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
