I guess the debian stock kernels don't work? It would certainly be easier to find a powerpc than to build a cross-compiler... If you don't mind helping me get up to speed a little bit (I've done some building, but not a kernel yet), and you think a kernel compiled on an iMac would probably work, I could help you out with my machine. FWIW, the 'Note' error reminds me that ybin/yaboot adds a bogus 'Note' to keep CHRP machines happy. Might be something there. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------*
