Thank you very much. That was exactly what I was looking for. Mayhaps we should publicize this document more? I know it's kinda bad form to rely on another distribution to accomplish a base install, but hey...whatever works, right? :) Maybe a link to this doc off the powerpc.debian.org homepage? (at this point I think anything is better than the placeholder page.) Gah...that sounds really insolent. I don't mean to step on toes here. I've been lurking on this list for a very long time now, and figured it would be time to speak up. My C-programming isn't so hot, nor do I have a lot of time to devote to debugging, otherwise I'd lend more of an active hand. But, in the meantime, I'd be more than happy to guine-pig my current system. After running Debian-i386 for a year, getting my machine taken away and replaced with a PPC5400-180 for the last yeat, I've decided that Redhat/LinuxPPC is a royal pain in the @$$, and really want to eradicate it from my system. -Jeremiah Merkl
