Hi,

The *Gentoo / Linux PlayStation3* _LiveCD_ was updated at

<ftp://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/ftp.gentoo.org/experimental/ppc64/livecd/
li...>

Many Thanks to *Gentoo / Linux* Developers :-)

The updated *Mini Pack* <http://eureka.atari.org/MacAranym.zip>
now supports

`MacAranym` allows launching on Macintosh with Mac OS X
`MacAranym JIT` allows launching on MacIntel with Mac OS X
`run_x86.sh` allows launching on PC with x86-Linux
`run_ppc.sh` allows launching on Mac _and_ PS3 with PPC-Linux

So *Macintosh - PC - PlayStation3* are all supported with
both *Mac OS X and Linux*.
