Terra Soft Offers Linux-booting iPods, FW Drives
Kai Staats of Terra Soft writes "We are pleased to now offer support for bootable iPods and FireWire drives, enabling a highly portable Linux on PowerPC environment." Note that this is about booting a Macintosh into Linux, not running Linux on the iPod.
You appear to have left your NT4/PPC install media at home ;-). Darwine can run Win32/PPC binaries.
Pedants. I couldn't resist, sorry. :-)
iPods with Front Wheel Drive?
I'm not good in groups. It's difficult to work in a group when you're omnipotent. - Q
Is this how Linus boots his Mac?

"Terra Soft Solutions(R), Inc., the leading developer of integrated PowerPC Linux solutions"
Woah! Leading developer of integrated PowerPC Linux solutions. That's impressive! I wonder if there is a second place?
No kidding, they got to make the ads less obvious. Like change the title to M$ employee and SCO employee loves iPods running linux on campus.
It's called "joke". Look it up in the dictionary.
If it runs Linux.
Crap! Wouldn't you know it, right after I just installed Yellow Dog too >:(

There is a lesson here.. The quick slashdotting apears to indicate raid works better than an ipod for running your server.
You can get a free iPod ? Really ?? Where???
Hippo Linux, the worlds premiere bloatware distro. Their "enhanced" version of Emacs takes up 8 gigs by itself.
You know how you can take a normal thing, like reading, and patent it by appending "on the internet"?
Can I patent normal things, but append "when done by Linus"?
Surely that will lead me to profit.

I left a ham sandwich on my desk today and forgot about it. When I got back three geeks were working to make it boot Linux.
Insert witty sig here.
Upgrade! Knock over a lick-her store or something, if you need the cash.
...of course, a job in a lick-her store would be ideal.
I've heard that there is something called a "job". I might try that first, but thanks for the tip.
