I have a 9500. I installed Debian Linux on it (My G4 is dead and I need to save money to get a new system). Well, I don't like it one bit, and I want to install darwin and X11. What version is the newest of Darwin that will install on a 604? ~Donald |

Any one have a clue if Xfree86 4.3.0 installs on Darwin 1.1.4 ? |

I think, http://opendarwin.org/downloads/darwinppc-141.cdr.gz This seems to be the only older one they list, but maybe some one else knows where some others are. None of the 6.x.x one's will work with a 604. You could try yellowdoglinux.com not a bad port of RedHat Linux, but if you install 3.0 watch out for some bad RPM's one the third cd. You will have to chose to chose the list to install RPM's and uncheck the bad ones, a real pain. Maybe they fixed that 3rd cd by now. After you get it installed it's good stuff. Darwin seems to be flawed in that doc is slim to none. |
