There is now a PegXLin
entry at the IBM Global Solutions Directory. PegXLin is a one CD installed image of Debian/Sarge for the PegasosPPC. It uses part of the Debian/Sarge installer, but then uses an installer script that copies the PegXLin pre-installed image to the disk.

PegXLin now "Ready for IBM Technology" : Comment 33 of 46 | ANN.lu |

Mandrake works fine here, and doesn't seem "half-arsed" at all. Most of the things I can't do with it yet are down to my own ignorance and/or lazyness, not down to Linux.
One of the usual problems Linux has is that people switching to it (or trying it) come from being users of other operating systems. As such, they already have prejudices and expect everything to work as it did on their old system, only better. If people were willing to give it as much time and patience as they gave their first OS, then there would be fewer complaints.
Having said that, finding out how to do basic things can be a pain sometimes, because most users and documentation assume you already know. |
