Re: IBM power pc

["Benjamin Hoffman" <fight4port25@gmail.com>]

I installed etch on a 7044 using the net install cd after installing new firmware from IBM.

Described here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2008/09/msg00076.html

hi there;

 

I have a IBM power-pc 7248 model

and would like to upgrade the O.S. (linux debian sarge)

to etch...

 

have tried to build a new kernel on the 7248

and as of yet not gotten a zImage.prep built

 

seems that the build (make) does not 'make'

a image for this machine anymore.

 

the latest sarge kernel works (builds) just fine.

 

thanks for any help
