Re: Newbie install problems - Please help
Further work. I copied the whole CD to a partition on the hard drive. I
then re-downloaded the lib6_2.2.5_6powerpc.deb from Debian. I over rode the
one on that came from the CD. I re-did the install installing from the hard
disk. Same error. So what ever is causing this file to corrupt is a
different file or it is something with my hardware.
Granted this is a Mac clone but I didn't think it would be a problem. Also
it is upgraded to a G3 450 Mhz from a 210 Mhz 604e. Are there any know
problems with processor upgrades on Macs and installing Linux?
I appreciate your help.
