Hi
I use a Mac G4 and have a spare hard drive.
I would like to put a Unix OS on it but do not know what I can use.
There is a Unix foundation with OSX but I would like to start from scratch
and not have any concerns about messing anything up hence the spare hard
drive. Most of the OS's are x86 based but Mac machines are different so I am
unsure what the correct choice should be


Help

Tony
