Re: Install a Debian in an E/30



How about a B50? I found a website at 
http://adequat.c2a.fr/linux/howtos/rs6000, but it does not work. The kernel 
seems to unzip and it gets to a point that says booting...
If anyone has this working and is willing to share any info, that would 
officially rock.
