Maybe, I'll make another partition and see if I can get Debian working also.
I have a walkthrough from Jarmo, which I will try tonight, for Linux PPC
2000.
How did you overcome problems with archives now working. The Archives
on the 3 CD's I have complain saying they are corrupt, wrong length.
Do you have to update GZIP and Tar or something ?
Or did you simply copy the DEB files to a HD and mount it ?
I've learned some things whilst trying to install various linux Distros, but
it really shouldn't be this hard.
Alan gave us some neat tips to open another console to mount various devices.
