intermittently, as does the mac side, which also attaches the wrong

Anyone here have MOL running on a 603e based machine,
like a starmax?
I have downloaded the latest MOL,
I was wondering, just as an offhand question, whether
the unstable branch of gnome is available anywhere as
gnome .deb packages, either for x86 or for powerpc?
If I wanted to run the CVS version of gnome instead of
the official debian one (say, for instance, I wanted to try
Nautilus), what should
Hi. I would like to run mac-on-linux, but I have a 603e and
apparently need a specially patched kernel in order to run
it. The patches that came with the mol package unfortunately
don't apply to the kernel sources that are available for
debian.
For that matter, the last time I tried the kernel I c
Hi. I'm in the process of trying yet another installation attempt
of debian-ppc on a Starmax 5000.
I didn't go through the entire installation process, because the
kernel and module files hadn't downloaded right, but I got close

Unfortunately, I think VA is partially owned by Intel.
Hi. I've been mostly lurking here for a while; I have a
Motorola Starmax at work, and while it formerly had
MkLinux on it, it currently only has the MacOS. There's
plenty of space on the HD on unallocated partitions, though.
I have several questions:
