7200 installation - floppy
None of the installation links on the Debian website
link for me.
;<
A search engine for the lists.debian.org eludes me.
I've read about the "PowerPC success!" and a boot-floppy-hfs.img
but nobody includes the link in their posts.
Pity the newbies without persistance!
I have a Macintosh, a modem w/ppp-account, free time, and familiarity
with ShrinkWrap, MungeImage, DiskCopy, and a few other sector/image apps.
If somebody would hold my hand, I'll write newbie instructions
for booting an oldworld PowerMac.
I have a PowerMac 7200/75 = PowerPC 601 75mhz
on-motherboard: accelerated video support ;) for monitors wired for
AppleSenseLines
10baseT & localtalk
serial port
8mb RAM (upgraded to 72 but let's assume a stock box)
blind and broken OpenFirmware
SCSI_id_0=4gb <------------------one 1gb mac partition
SCSI_id_1=500mb must remain bootable and usable
is backed up on CD. :)
please respond to debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org and
debian-boot@lists.debian.org
so we all can share, thanks.
