from scratch install of ibook
Hi all!
I extra bought another used iBook to test to do some PPC development...
now G4 instead of the ol' G3 which as too little ram, even if I love the
old clamshell. So I need to install "from scratch"
However, where do I get media for installing it and what is the
recommended way? CD? USB key? The old clamshell did not boot from USB key.
Starting from: https://www.debian.org/ports/powerpc/#powerpc
32bit PPC is of course in the dust.
Also, since it is a from scratch install, I can test installing GRUB
instead of Yaboot, since I can decide all partition sizes and also I
don't risk destroying anything. I am not interested in dual booting.
A reference to trying out that (or if the instalelr does all by itself
for that too.. then, even better).
Thanks,
Riccardo
