The only ones I know for sure that will work are Linux (mkLinux version or PPC version depending on your system setup) and NetBSD (which runs on a TON of things) By the way, anyone know if a possible port is underway? I have a friend who has used Mac his whole life and borders on being a Mac zealot, and before I found FreeBSD I was trying to get him to try out Linux. He is very interested, and I think it would be very cool if FreeBSD was even partially functional on a Mac. > Can my old Macintosh be converted into a UNIX box? > It's not the kind of new power > macs which are capable of using window/dos > programs....... > Will my freebsd work on this system ????? > please w/b soon, > Arty > aangelis@erols.com > ----- Knight 1: We are now the Knights who say...
