Your two options are NetBSD and Linux (Probably Debian). And you've got some fun ahead of you to get them installed. You'll also need to copy the files to your Mac OS(System 7) partition, then install to a blank drive. It's non-trivial (Speaks the guy who's been playing with a Debian m68k install onto a Centris for a couple of months). You will need a supported Ethernet card and net access to do the Debian install. The Crazy Finn What does a Woman Mean by 'Just Friends' It means; "I don't just want you to mourn the loss; I want to remind you of it every day. I want you to suffer. I want you to envy. I want you to die slowly, a bit at a time. And I want you to smile and thank me for it." from alt.gothic ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Driscoll" To: Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2003 5:22 PM Subject: freebsd > i run a pc with windows xp as my internet connection. recently, i > acquired an old mac LC III with one floppy drive. if i download freebsd > and copy it to floppies on my windows pc, can i still use them to > install freebsd to my mac? > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
