[QUOTE="LeftEye, post: 42674"] [b]Re. Orion119 Linux on Macs[/b] Dear Orion119, YellowDog Linux does run on Macs. That's what it's designed for but I think there is problem particular to the Powerbook hardware that I have. As you say, the chipset may be incompatible but I had read somewhere that it will only work if you have the right kind of RAM installed, i.e. the DIMMS will only work if they're rated at 60 or something. Anyway, I'm not sure so can anyone confirm this? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
