Do you happen to have a step-by-step setup guide for doing a Sarge 
install on the PowerMac 8600. I would like to do that but not sure 
where to start. Did you just get a Sarge disc set and make boot 
floppies? Do you use BootX to boot?

I also have the a G4 upgrade card, mine is a 450. I put 256MB of RAM in 
it but will add more in the future if needed.

Once I get this figured out I'm going to put a page on my website 
detailing the process and setup a channel in my forum for discussing 
it.
