Mandrakelinux 10.1 Out For PPC

Posted by timothy on from the nifty-and-commendable dept.

joestar writes "Less than two weeks after the release of Mandrakelinux 10.1 Official for x86, Mandrakelinux 10.1 for PPC has been released! The interesting news is that this version of Mandrakelinux is now a community-driven project. This means that Mandrakesoft is not anymore behind the PPC port. Hardware requirements and release notes are available online at Mandrakelinux WiKi. Any volunteer for SPARC & Alpha?"

  1. Opendarwin by Milton+Waddams · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I'm just wondering, is there much of a point running Linux on your Mac? I mean, it'd be much better to run Opendarwin with either Darwinports or Fink on top of it. From there you can install KDE or GNOME plus lots of other stuff.

    Opendarwin would have much better hardware support than Linux on Macs. Has anybody done this? What's the install like? Is there any way to upgrade to new Opendarwin releases?
