Hello, Will the file debian-update-7.2.0-powerpc-CD-1.iso install Debian on a Mac PB3400? I don't want to dual boot, I want Linux only. Is there anything unusual about the installation compared to a standard desktop PC installation? Best regards, Fred
Hi Fred,Note that update CDs/DVDs are not meant to boot, they just contain the packages needed to upgrade an existing installation. If you don't have that existing installation, then you'll need to use the normal installation CDs/DVDs. After the new system is booted, the updated CD/DVD can be added with apt-cdrom add.
