Ooopps! I can read "Debian GNU/Linux non-US packages" at the top of README.non-US file. And all the references, install manuals, etc I could actually find in the Web were locate @debian site. And there is a folder named with the kernel version (i guess) that reads like " dists/potato/main/disks-powerpc/2.2.23-2001-04-15".
I could start automatically the installer from the floppy disk, but the installation stucks asking for a driver disk. It says this is driver disk 1 of # from set "x". I need driver disk from set <blank>. It's not an exactly reproduction of the warning message, but it gives a taste of it: it knows that the disk i inserted belongs to a <named> set, but does not know the set name it wants. And i tried every driver disk in the CD, and they were all refused. Again, I would be delighted to have linux runnning in this machine (performa 6360) and appreciate any help. An special thanks to Chris for his answer. Many thanks in advance to anyone that provide me some guideline/directions that helps me achieve my goal, Luis Chris Tillman wrote: > > On Mon, Mar 18, 2002 at 08:08:54AM -0300, Luis Alves Ferreira Filho wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I want to install linuxppc in a Performa 6360. > > > > steps: > > > > 1.
