Summary: An Installer for LinuxPPC 2000 Q4

Initial Comment:
It will be very useful concerning the difficulties of installing 
LinuxPPC 2000 Q4 using the old Redhat tree. Systems are pretty
unstable and many applications don't run ...

I say no. :) See also the explanation in the request for a
SuSE installer.

I've already had a go at this with no success.

The structure on cd image I down loaded didn't match the X
based installer script, couldn't make any sense of it.

What I was considering doing was making the last redhat
installer a bit more flexible so it could do the job
with a minimum number of RPMS but without the RedHat/base/
dir.

But is it worth it ?

Ken.

Assigning this to Ken, who did the earlier LinuxPPC installers.

I honestly don't see the point in trying to support an
arguably unmaintained distribution though, seeing as there
is a well-maintained distribution, which even officially
supports APUS.
