Hi,
I've tested both on Mac mini (PowerMac10,1) successfully. Installation
went well onto the internal IDE drive.
But installing on a USB drive failed: ofpath doesn't support usb-storage.
On the other hand, I was unable to boot from the USB drive, OF seems
to be unable to read it.

OK, it proves we need 1.3.16 for some Power6 machines to work with
Squeeze.

This is not likely to change. Packag
Need a place to upload/download, I think I know how to build optimized
packages but I don't know how to built a debian style repository, that is
something people could add to /etc/apt/sources.list.
If you wanted to try building web browser that would be cool. I am planning

I was working on a G5 optimized 64 bit binary of GNU Icecat (their own take on
Iceweasel) but encountered so
Ubuntu although "community supported" works well. At least, I have installed
10.0LTS on a couple ancient G3 powermacs with LXDE desktop from server

laptop in Debian Lenny but worked in Ubuntu. I know Ubuntu is sort of the

Yeah, and YDL and probably many more, eventhough I doubt they also
support 10 other architectures. Sorry if I hurt someone's feelings,
but I only think "mainstream" distros.

Hi,
I have tested the

power6 I have at hand. First of all : no more "two passes behaviour",
ehea module OK.
Reboot worked perfectly. Thanks to all of you that make it possible !
