I have installed debian/linux on several Intel and one Alpha machine. We no have an IBM Model 40P ppc machine that we would like to investigate with Debian/LInux before trying linuxppc or yellowdog. I have found the powerpc subtree within the potato/unstable tree. However, I cannot find anything specific on boot, root, driver, and rescue diskettes for this machine. Can I use one of the others (powermac, prep, chrp, etc.). Also is there a documentation effort started for these machines we could use to get started. I believe once I have the system booted with the rescue diskette, I could go from there (found the base diskettes in the common subdirectory).
