I have a bunch of older macs but none currently has linux and/or a current version of linux on them. What models do you need tested? Can you point me to a quick easy to install distro? I usually use openSUSE but I think Fedora has a ppc port now as well. I only have 32bit macs. I have: iMac DV 400Mhz PowerMac G4 Digital Audio 466Mhz 2 - PowerMac G3 Blue & Whites (one with a G4 I THINK). PowerMac 9600 PowerMac 9500 PowerMac 6500 PowerMac 6400 PowerMac G3 All In One Beige. PowerBook G3 Wallstreet I probably have more. The top 4 are New World, the rest are Old World. Not even sure if they work anymore but I can try them if you want. I'm not a programmer, so if you could offer me some simple steps to adding the patches to the kernel I would be able to help.
