That's really the important question.
I have heard great things about Debian PPC. Problem is I can't figure

That is, I have d'led the 2.2 directory, and the rescue, root,
ramdisk, drivers and HFS boot disk, however I cannot figure out what
to do with them.

Hmm, one tip I've heard is to make the MacOs partition relatively small, and
use it for /boot. Where can I find the boot floppies, though. I've found a

need to dual boot the StarMax. I decided to install Debian/PPC on it
and have a couple of problems and questions.
Firstly, my keyboard was un
Herbert Xu uploaded 2.2.19pre17 kernel images today, which fix some
security problems. Could the boot-floppies team please build new
floppies based on those, and could the porters please update the
kernels for their architectures as well? I would like to release a
security advisory for the kernel

I've done this myself on a beige G3 so I know it works there. (OS 9.1)
