I have been trying to get woody to boot on my RS/6000 43P. The default
ISO for potato seemed to work except for one of the SCSI drivers. I found
that using SYM53C8xx driver instead of the NCR53C8xx driver cleared up
this problem. The latter of the two got stuck in an infinite

I was just wondering if anybody on this list has their ears near the
blackdown JDK porters for PPC. PPC never had a 1.3.1 release, and
searching on debian-java and linuxppc-user & dev doesn't seem to
reveal any JDK related traffic in many moons. Anybody here happen to
know if t

I'm trying to get Debian up and running on a Cube. So far I've been
unable to find an installation system which will run on the machine.
