Hi Everyone,
This is my first encounter with CPLUG :)
I have a PowerMac G4 that I'm trying to install Debian on. I have a
net install disc but from what I've gathered from research, the
default boot loader does not recognize Bootable Linux discs. I've
heard that there is a boot loader called "Yaboot" that you can install
on PowerPC computers so you can boot Linux discs.
Does anyone have any experience installing Linux on a
PowerPC(specifically a PowerMac G4), either using Yaboot or some other
magic?
Any help would be appreciated,
Matthew
