Yellow Dog Linux 4.0 - Finally in Limited Release
sloopy writes "Terra Soft Solutions has released the long awaited and overdue next version of Yellow Dog Linux - version 4.0, for ydl.net enhanced subscribers and pre-installed on new machines, with full release to hopefully soon follow in the coming weeks. With this new release, they finally include native support for the new G5s (32-bit kernel/toolchain currently, full 64-bit soon) and continued support for the G4s and newer G3s."
It's so good to know that Yellow Dog Democrats now have a platform in the Digital Age!
Ah yes, and I'm sure trying out ppc linux distributions is the main reason why your x86 box is broken.
"you cradle your new 12" PowerBook G4 (small enough to hide at the office) running Yellow Dog Linux. Feeling so empowered by this transformation, you quickly demand full reimbursement for the cost of your Mac from your health insurance company, stating with affirmation that an Apple with Yellow Dog Linux is an NIH funded, clinically tested, FDA approved form of alternative medicine. And you would have walked to Canada to get one!
Yes, this is why people run Linux on a Mac. Hard to explain, isn't it? "
if yes, once it becomes 64-bit, it'll be bloody dangerous.
Sig. No Sig.
With OSX, those nice guys at SCO won't sue you. You really need Linux to get them after you.
Run, Yellow dog, run !
You don't deserve a G5.
An even closer look makes me suspect he already has a mac somewhere, because its running OS X...
It's strange...apparently when you first attempt to run the installer, the screen goes black, and the only words visible are:
YOU BOUGHT A 17INCH POWERBOOK TO RUN LINUX?!
It won't let you proceed beyond that point...
