Oh yes, G5 is another matter, it's not supported at all in 2.4 ;) The fact that there is a very minimal support in 2.4 was done to help some distro who had 2.4-only installers at one point, and definitely not meant to be used after the install stage. Also, I don't intend to support the 32 bits kernel on them for long neither, G5s should really run a 64 bits kernel even with a 32 bits userland. Ben.
