suse on a PowerComputing with a g3 upgrade
Hi... i'm a newbie to this forum... I've been working on a solaris machine for quite a while @ school, and I thought it was time to turn one of my old macs into a linux box. I picked up a copy of SuSe linux yesterday and i have been trying to install it since... I have macOS 7.5.3 (I tried it with 9, 8.6, and 8) running on a 150MB partition and I have : 2 800MB linux partitions, 1 macOS boot partition and 100MB Swap partition. This interesting thing is that when I open the boot app, it goes into linux, then sits there after it has printed out about half a scree full of the specifications of my computer... any Ideas?

Also, should I just order linux PPC... I mean, will I be able to boot my oldWorld computer with the Bootable CD?
