Well I have a 7043/150 running Woody / sid. But I didn't do the installation so I don't have much information. My box is a chrp, I believe yours would be a prep.. Anyway you should drop by #debianppc on freenode.net to get some help. But it's definitely something that can be done. TTimo On Thu, 6

booting on CD for a 7043/150

I'm trying to get DI code running for a 7043/150 powerpc box. Since the kernel image and everything is too big to fit on a floppy, the only solution is to boot on CD. After some looking around, I have found the following information: The CD must have a PReP partition to boot on, and point to a zI
