I'm trying to install Linux on an IBM RS/6000 model 43P @ 100Mhz.
I've been able to install LinuxPPC R4.
Now I wanted to install R5 or Debian - no success.
Main problem is boot / install image : I've found a lot of boot
images, but none is working for me.
Some of them are R4 version and can't handle R5 install.
The R5 ones have some problems with the scsi adapter.
It seems that 2.2 kernels correctly detect the scsi adapter, but
then some test
fails and they detach the adapter.
Result is no disk and no CD.
Has anyone a working boot image with installer for this HW ?
Where I can find some good and pertinent piece of information ?
And the files too !
Any help will be appreciated.
P.S. I'm doing this in spare working time ( lunch, late evening ... ), but I volunteer for testing !

Thanks!
