PegXMac is a special LiveCd for Pegasos 2 capable to boot (without any hd requiring) MacOnLinux 0.9.3 (the latest stable version)! Download it now! Based on Debian 3, the LiveCd is avaiable from a specified ftp site for the simbolic 1E (1$) price, necessary to support the download bandwitch :D It's full autosensitive (Firewire support too!) and really easy to use due it's nature of LiveCd. New site will be opened soon to supply the bandwitch overusing on Geocities. In the meantime, if you are, lucky: http://www.morphzone.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=2052&forum=16&start=0&viewmode=flat&order=0

The site is down because it "exceeded its allocated data transfer".

1.40 euro ($1.71 US) is peanuts. I'm sure you could have charged a little more and helped more with the site and costs.

Don't even have a Peg yet but I paid the fee to get this.

>> In some countries EULAs are strickly enforced by organizations like the BSA >> and violations may be persecuted.

I think you mean to say violater's may be prosecuted. I don't think folks will be persecuted for violation of the EULA.

Any chance of a Pegasos1 version becoming available? or what can I do to make it run on a Peg1?

Unless things have changed, this works with Peg1 as well as Peg2. (His site says "PegXMAC is the only LIVE CD in existance to be configured specifically for the pegasos I, II".)

Could you explain why one should boot MOL instead of MOS and even do so without an HD ? I don't understand...
Or maybe this CD can be used to install MOL on HD as well.

In reply to Comment 12 (Elwood):
Because people may want to be able to run MACOSX applications occasionaly without having to deal with installing and configuring Linux and MOL ?

In reply to Comment 12 (Elwood):
easy:

- You boot from PegXMac to have a confortable environement for the MacOS X (MOL).
- You use a FireWire HD to install/boot the MacOS X in MOL

conclusion:
- You haven't spent a week to install Linux
- You need to find a friend with a Mac to put the MacOS X on the FireWire HD :-)
- Thx to the PegXLin team !
- Thx to MOL team
- Thx to bPlan

PS: you could even use a real HD (but then you need a didicated parition)
PS2: Pegasos rules!

Bye

In the case of EULA violations, I think persecution is more likely to happen than prosecution. ;)

(Unless the violation of something in the EULA also happens to be a violation of a law, e.g. copyright infringement.)

Is it only PEG II or PEG too?
On David's site it seems to be for PEG I and II, but in this news, only PEG II is specified.

I'm very exited to test it tonight. With a very very small linux, I'll have a lot of memory for MOL with my PEG I. With a complet Debian install, 256MO of RAM is too short.

There seems to be alot of confusing going on here,

* ITS RUNS on all Pegasos Boards

* No memory limit, as it can use your swap partition for extra memory

I want to fix my post and clarify that IT RUNS PERFECTLY also under Pegasos1 !
SUre the doference in performance between Pegasos 1 and Pegasos 2 should consider anyone to switch to Pegasos 2: the Marvell chip and DDR ram, really push up the G3 and G4 performance (enstead of the crap Mai Articia).

BTW, if you have bandwitch problems why don't you compress the file?

Everyone has bandwitch problems these days. Those evil cronies with their brooms and their hairy warts keep sticking their noses into peoples networks a lot these days.

Oh, you meant _bandwidth_? Now that's a different story. It's simply been dieting.
