Boot-Floppies PowerPC pronti!

[MaX <max@maximumdebian.org>]

ciao a tutti,

potete scaricare le immagini dei boot-floppies per PowerPC 3.19 (woody)
da: http://ftp.maximumdebian.org/pub/misc/PowerMac/

le immagini sono una release completa, cioé per floppy e per cdrom 

Per chi non ha il floppy disk, per esempio su un iMac o un iBook, ho chiesto nella lista debian-boot, e queste sono state le risposte:

It's okay.

Sure:

#!/bin/bash
# make-iso.sh - creates my own netinst image
#set -x
#set -e
if test ! "$1"; then
  echo
  echo "Usage: make-iso.sh <boot-flavor>"
  echo "boot-flavor is the flavor to be used as boot image. Default is udma100-ext3."
  echo
  bootfl=udma100-ext3
else
  bootfl=$1
fi
echo Please use and reuse CDRWs. Stop the polution.
echo Press Return to continue...
