Re: Newbie planning vanilla Debian 31r1a-powerpc net install.



Hi Brian,

no offense ment, but I think a good idea is to read the installation
manual. I've done Debian installations on several machines, Oldworlds,
mostly, and from what I read so far I think that installing Debian on
a Newworld machine such as yours should be pretty straight forward.
Just remember that in case you want to (re)install OS X, too, you
should install it first. Being on a single disk means that you have to
choose a partitioning scheme in OS X that leaves enough space for
Debian. But AFAIK even this is explained in the manuals.
Of course having a 2nd machine with a running network connection to
read the manual online is a damn good thing, if there isn't such a
machine you should go through the manual and printout the parts that
are usefull for you and your configuration.
