Cool,
I did not know Redhat worked on PPC? Mandrake?
is everything up to date or is like the SUSE PPC which is versions behind...
Ben
Dirk,
first, go here for some inspiration : http://funda.ment.org/THELIGHT/
some ppl prefer redhat to start with. I would recomend this as well. pretty easy to install. I even have my father using it now. don't go with mandrake or suse. with redhat, just pop in the cd's and click thru the install process.
if you are a bit daring, than try out debian or gentoo <gentoo.org> with both of those, you will probably be spending more time than you want configuring the machine.
best -august.

i think its a good winter to wake up the pinguin again and try to learn something usefull ....
ok heres my question to all the experts and freaks:
please help
, which linux you would prefer ? the goal is to run pd/gridflow (oh how wonderfull it could be) etc. and to learn about linux ? debian, mandrake, suse, red hat and i heard about a special multimedie linux, but forgot its name. tell me ...
, where can i find good instructions for a weak win user, who wants to experience all this compiling stuff etc ?
, is there a tutorial or something which can bring me to my goal, step by step ? (ok, surly not available, the install linux/pd tutorial for dummies)
in one sentence, i am looking for a guru who leads me through the dark path of personal operating systems..
thanx for reading
