There seems to be very little left on the planet that will work. I could try some Linux out there but I would like to stay with a "UNIX" type system. I have now yet looked at the OpenBSD types and I don't even know if there is a stable build for ye old super PowerPC64 anyways. So where would I look to make some bootable DVD's to see if I can install FreeBSD on this PowerMac G5 ? Is the 8.1 release really the last one that can work in a stable fashion ? Dennis
