I was trying since years to run Linux on my powerbook 1400. I started with MKLinus, but because of the missing support of the media bay and PCMCIA I stopped my efforts for a while. I have now detected this newsgroup and I have seen very good progress in many areas. The thing which is missing is some kind of documentation, I would therfore voluteer in putting together all information about Linux on PB 1400 and others. There are a number of small documents around the web but I think we should have a centralised document where put put in all we know. Please let me know if somebody is interested in this area and can contribute some information to me. The plan is to use my web page for this. Regards Stefan |

Great idea :) Take icedtrip's document [1] on installing Debian Woody as a starting point. An updated version that show how to install Sarge would be nice. As soon we have provided an updated kernel image on the SF project page, I guess there will be more success installing Linux in the first place -- even for beginners. > Please let me know if somebody is interested in this area and can > contribute some information to me. The plan is to use my web page for this. I guess the most current information is on this mailing list. For me the most convenient way of reading all recent postings is by pointing your favorite news (usenet) reader at news.gmane.org and subscribe to gmane.linux.ports.ppc.nubus-pmac.users . If you need more details do not hesitate to ask here ;) IMHO all further documentation should be posted on the SF project page. Tell me if you miss a document and I will put it online. Cheers, Florian |
