Well I have debian woody running nicely on a PowerMac 6500 w/32 MB RAM.
No X windows. I got a good deal on some RAM and I can max it out (128
MB). So now what's the best way to get X and a gnome environment
installed? It appears there's a meta-package for x-window-system which I
am hoping I can
Well what I've found seems to help is to execute:
fbset -a -accel false
This (to my understanding) disables hardware framebuffer acceleration.
This has stopped the corrupted characters on my consoles. Is there any
way to do this with boot args?
Also I tried to set my keyboard repeat rate using

it. Is this related to the video acceleration and i

Pine is free as in no cost. But it's not GPL.

Still trying to get woody to install on my PowerMac 6500. I got through
the install process to the point of "Make the system bootable" using quik
(I never got to choose this, BTW.)
It cannot. In the console log (Opt-F3) I see
dbootstrap[78]: ofpath: This machine is not supported: AAPL,e411MacRI
I'm setting up a PowerMac 6500. Since it only has 32MB RAM I am not going
to run X Windows, but instead plan to use it as a light duty server. I
previously had LinuxPPC 2000 Q4 running on this box and since that distro
is no longer maintained am rebuilding it with Debian.
I did notice that Linux

Yes, there is an eth0. So maybe I don't need to install a net module at
all. Thanks -- I'll try to proceed.

That's not among the modules included in the floppy-disk install. Can I
download that from somewhere?

My network card is not listed in the "Select net modules" of the installer
(I am installing from the floppy disk images). Is this available
somewhere and is there a way to specify that I have additional drivers on
a disk.
Otherwise can I use the 3c509 driver or one of the other ones until I can
