That would probably work fine. My G3 iBook2 (two generations back on CPUs) first got Gentoo on it, and following that Ubuntu Linux 4.10 "warty warthog". There are now also beta-level live CDs of that distribution (not yet tried). I've in fact downloaded one of those for _my_ installfest (SVLUG/CABAL's), which will likewise be Saturday, at my house in the Bay Area. This distro list is reasonably current: http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/faq/index.php?page=maclinux#powermaclinux _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
