| 15:21.19 | troex | great %) |
| 15:21.24 | Curalton | if you can handle it |
| 15:21.45 | Curalton | else try ubuntu, which is also.... debianish (given you have a newworld) |
| 15:21.45 | belhifet | i mean is it better than yellow dog linux? |
| 15:22.18 | Curalton | yes, a lot more packages, something arround 11000 |
| 15:22.19 | [paZx] | belhifet, yes IMHO |
| 15:22.26 | belhifet | i have heard so good things about ydl... |
| 15:22.45 | belhifet | paZx: why is that? |
| 15:23.13 | belhifet | which version is running better?debian for ppc or debian for x86? |
| 15:23.46 | troex | belhifet no big difference expect arch specific |
| 15:23.54 | belhifet | do i need to download all 14 cd's? |
| 15:24.06 | Curalton | no |
| 15:24.08 | troex | no just first one |
| 15:24.30 | Curalton | or try the netinstall cd for even less |
| 15:24.32 | belhifet | the 1st is the installer and the rest are filled with extra packages? |
| 15:24.45 | Curalton | yes |
| 15:24.56 | Curalton | and you can get these packages over the internet too |
| 15:25.09 | belhifet | are the 14 cds debian's entire database of packages |
| 15:25.22 | belhifet | those 10000-15000 i hear about |
| 15:25.23 | belhifet | ? |
| 15:26.25 | Curalton | yes |
| 15:26.47 | Curalton | but... given your linux experience i'd rather recommend to start with ubuntu for ppc |
| 15:27.07 | Curalton | (at least thats my assumtion what would be best for you) |
| 15:27.44 | belhifet | does it make a difference? |
| 15:27.59 | belhifet | i mean as long as i have the GUI it'll be the same |
| 15:28.24 | belhifet | maybe a few headaches during the install process |

| 15:30.05 | karim | this page is about using an ATX power supply on a mac G3 |
| 15:30.09 | troex | belhifet if debian and ubuntu would be the same there won't two distors |
| 15:30.26 | karim | I was wondering if all the ground cables need to be connected |
| 15:30.29 | Curalton | belhifet: well, dunno how far debian is, last time i checked it didnt bring up a gui by default |
| 15:30.30 | karim | to the mother board |
| 15:30.57 | belhifet | Curalton: well startx is there to help me |
| 15:31.12 | karim | for exemple I must remove PG and -5V cables |
| 15:31.26 | karim | and plug them to 3.3V or ground |
| 15:31.30 | Curalton | belhifet: well, still leaves the generation of an xfreeconfig |
| 15:31.43 | Curalton | belhifet: also only ubuntu has x.org, debian is still with xfree 4.3 |
| 15:31.52 | karim | I Was wondering if I just can not plug them at all, since there is already ground and 3.3V pins |
| 15:32.12 | Curalton | if you want a somewhat smoother start go for ubuntu/kubuntu belhifet, else debian :) |
| 15:32.12 | belhifet | xorg is the evolution of xfree? |
| 15:32.31 | Curalton | uh, sortof. the successor |
| 15:32.46 | belhifet | oh ok thanks for the advice |
| 15:33.17 | belhifet | oh, another question: do i have to format the drive and reinstall mac osx to have debian/ubuntu dual boot with it? |
| 15:33.47 | Curalton | if os x has the whole drive i think so |
| 15:34.03 | Curalton | dunno if you can rescue boot os x first and do a resize |
| 15:34.14 | Curalton | long time since i have seen an os x install |
| 15:35.07 | belhifet | curalton: lol how is that?do you mean you formatted and have a mac only with debian now? |
| 15:36.26 | karim | ok I will just check with a voltmetre |
| 15:39.03 | Curalton | belhifet: no, put the right partitions on from start when installing os x |
| 15:39.13 | Curalton | but atm im without os x on my ibook |
| 15:39.49 | belhifet | yeah but i want to rescue mac os x |
| 15:40.09 | belhifet | doesn't debian have an utility for resizing partitions or something? |
| 15:40.19 | Curalton | boot from an os x cd and see what it can do |
| 15:40.26 | Curalton | hfs+, not that i know if |
| 15:42.18 | belhifet | ok what filesystem should i use for debian? |
| 15:42.32 | Curalton | ext3 |
| 15:42.43 | Curalton | since there is a macosx plugin that can read ext3/2 |
| 15:42.49 | belhifet | what's the difference with reiser? |
| 15:43.26 | belhifet | oh really?that would pretty cool |
| 15:43.53 | belhifet | can debian see the mac osx partition as well? |
| 15:43.57 | belhifet | hfs+? |
| 15:44.25 | Curalton | yes |
| 15:45.55 | belhifet | ok thanks for all your help |

| 21:16.43 | dk0r_ | Hi, Im new to the world of linux. Im looking to install debian on a linux partition of my ppc (powerbook g4 17" 1.5). Im reading through the following instructions http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.powerpc/index.html but still am unsure of what files to get from here --> ( http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/pub/linux/ftp.debian.org/debian-cd/ ) Any help will be much appreciated. |
| 21:18.13 | dk0r_ | I was going to use the netinstall. But i have dhcp disabled on my router. |
| 21:18.40 | *** join/#debianppc dloer (~killerbyt@p54A1CF6E.dip.t-dialin.net) |
| 21:19.36 | dk0r_ | i dont know the command to run netinstall yet alone assign an ip to the install "session" |

| 21:27.18 | jao | dk0r_, you can get the netinstall. if no dhcp is found, the installer will offer you the possibility of configuring the network manually. |
| 21:27.29 | dk0r_ | jao: is this thr right file? |
| 21:27.41 | dk0r_ | debian-testing-powerpc-netinst.iso |
| 21:28.46 | jao | looks fine |
| 21:28.53 | dk0r_ | just burn the iso and thats it? |
| 21:29.02 | dk0r_ | dhcp being disabled doesnt matter? |
| 21:30.40 | jao | dk0r_, you can also download a bittorrent (http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/pub/linux/ftp.debian.org/debian-cd/current/powerpc/bt-cd/debian-31r0-powerpc-netinst.iso.torrent) |
| 21:30.53 | jao | dk0r_, there's no problem as long as you have a working network |
| 21:31.01 | dk0r_ | whats point of the bt ? |
| 21:31.05 | dk0r_ | i allready have the file |
| 21:31.23 | dk0r_ | i hold down c when booting correct? |
| 21:31.38 | jao | ok. just that the bt is a release, and your iso is testing, but they should be almost identical. |
| 21:31.44 | jao | correct |
| 21:31.52 | dk0r_ | ill get the bt then |
| 21:32.05 | dk0r_ | the cd will guide me through ? |
| 21:32.13 | dk0r_ | no need to know commands or anything? |
| 21:32.15 | jao | mostly |
| 21:32.35 | jao | oh, no. it's not graphical, but sure it's guided. |
| 21:32.54 | dk0r_ | yeah but i wont have to know any commands to install ? |
| 21:33.12 | jao | nope |
| 21:33.23 | dk0r_ | that files 195mb |
| 21:33.28 | dk0r_ | nm |
| 21:33.48 | dk0r_ | you gonna be around for a few? |
| 21:33.58 | jao | sure |
| 21:34.17 | dk0r_ | ok cool. ill get on the pc while debians installing |
| 21:34.22 | jao | ok |
| 21:34.46 | dk0r_ | is it necessary to have the bt reelease version? |
| 21:34.55 | dk0r_ | not working with my client |
| 21:35.46 | jao | not strictly necessary. but having the stable release may be better if you're new to gnu/linux |
| 21:35.58 | dk0r_ | can i download it from http? |
| 21:36.03 | dk0r_ | bt's not working |
| 21:36.05 | jao | dunno |
| 21:36.24 | jao | should be somewhere in debian's web |

| 22:32.12 | dk0r | what do i want to use the partition as: ? |
| 22:32.18 | dk0r | ext3? |
| 22:32.34 | dk0r | 3xt2, reiserFS,JFS,XFS,fat16,fat32,? |
| 22:32.45 | dk0r | swap areA? neworld boot partition? |
| 22:33.34 | troex | dk0r i prefer reiserfs for / |
| 22:34.12 | troex | if you use ext3 then you will be able to read your linux prtition from mac os |
| 22:34.24 | dk0r | so thats good. |
| 22:34.28 | troex | but reiserfs is faster then ext3 |
| 22:34.30 | dk0r | do i want a bootable flag? |
| 22:34.34 | dk0r | hrm |
| 22:34.43 | troex | and take less time to fsck |
| 22:34.45 | dk0r | bootable flag? |
| 22:34.47 | dk0r | i have 2 partitions |
| 22:34.48 | jao | dk0r, you'll need also a swap partition |
| 22:35.09 | dk0r | can i make partitions from inside this utility? |
| 22:35.12 | demon | and a newworld boot partition (which should be 800 KB in size) |
| 22:35.35 | dk0r | i currently have two partitions, one 60gb and one 20gb |
| 22:35.40 | dk0r | i want to put debian on the 20 |
| 22:35.54 | dk0r | which is the partition im editing now |
| 22:36.06 | jao | the newworld partition should be already there, if you also have mac os x |
| 22:36.29 | dk0r | nope i see.. |
| 22:36.38 | troex | hmm guess you don't need it |

| 22:39.01 | dk0r | suggestions? im new @ this |
| 22:39.21 | jao | dk0r, you need to split the 21g space into swap (~your memory x 2) and space for debian (ext3, reiserfs), which should be used as the "/" partition |
| 22:39.30 | dk0r | how? |
| 22:39.33 | dk0r | using what utility? |
| 22:40.05 | jao | dk0r, the partition editor you're in now. delete the 21g partition and create the two mentioned in the free space |
| 22:40.07 | *** join/#debianppc Official_Idler (~killerbyt@p54A1BE39.dip.t-dialin.net) |
| 22:40.58 | dk0r | only options i see are configure software raid, configure the logical volume manager, guided partioning, and help |
| 22:41.18 | jao | guided partitioning? |
| 22:41.38 | jao | (help may help too ;)) |
| 22:41.43 | dk0r | guided partitioning gives me 3 options |
| 22:41.47 | dk0r | yeah i think help helped |
| 22:42.16 | dk0r | ok |
| 22:42.22 | dk0r | i have 21.3gb of free space |
| 22:42.29 | dk0r | <PROTECTED> |
| 22:42.58 | jao | now tell the guided partitioning to use the larger available free space |
| 22:43.00 | dk0r | (ext3, reiserfs) = ext3 OR resierfs ? |
| 22:43.04 | dk0r | yep |
| 22:43.15 | jao | it should select the 23gig and setup for you the rest |
| 22:43.30 | jao | and yes, that meant ext3 OR reiserfs |
| 22:43.34 | dk0r | nope |
| 22:43.39 | dk0r | failed to partition |
| 22:43.50 | dk0r | cause, selected disk or free space is to small to be auto partioned |
| 22:43.57 | dk0r | it didnt see 21.3gb of free space |
| 22:43.59 | jao | have you freed the 21gig |
| 22:44.02 | jao | ? |
| 22:44.14 | jao | you should enter 'manually partition' to do that |
| 22:44.17 | dk0r | i didnt write changed |
| 22:44.20 | dk0r | changes |
| 22:44.23 | dk0r | i went back |
| 22:44.26 | dk0r | after freeing space |
| 22:45.09 | dk0r | ok. all files in one partition (recommended) ? |
| 22:45.16 | dk0r | desktop machine? or multi-user workstation |
| 22:45.28 | jao | all files in one. |
| 22:45.40 | dk0r | ty for your patience |
| 22:45.46 | jao | desktop, if you want to keep things simple |
| 22:45.52 | jao | no problem :) |
| 22:45.58 | dk0r | aht! to late |
| 22:46.10 | dk0r | chose one partition |
| 22:46.15 | jao | that's ok |
| 22:46.18 | dk0r | desktop is simpler then recommended? |
| 22:46.37 | jao | it creates a single partition for all your files |
| 22:46.46 | jao | (not sure about multi-user does) |
| 22:47.04 | dk0r | isnt that the same thing as.. |
| 22:47.08 | dk0r | all files in one partition? |
| 22:47.10 | jao | (it probably creates separate partitions for /home, /boot, / ...) |
| 22:47.19 | dk0r | so whats diff between all files in... and desktop? |
| 22:47.27 | jao | oh, now it's my turn for being dumb :) |
| 22:47.31 | dk0r | lol :) |
| 22:47.55 | jao | dk0r, you could just try each, without writing changes, and see |

| 23:21.10 | dk0r | i typed everything i had out earlier |
| 23:21.25 | dk0r | the os x partion has 125.3mb of free space left |
| 23:21.30 | jao | debian should have recognised it and do the right thing. |
| 23:21.44 | dk0r | would u like an actualy picture of my screen?? |
| 23:21.49 | jao | it's not booting? |
| 23:21.49 | dk0r | actual |
| 23:22.04 | dk0r | when i selected install base |
| 23:22.14 | dk0r | it said there was no neworld boot partion for that dual boot app |
| 23:22.16 | dk0r | i forget the name |
| 23:22.20 | demon | yeah, yaboot |
| 23:22.26 | dk0r | it asked if |
| 23:22.30 | demon | did you make a newworld boot partition? |
| 23:22.33 | dk0r | i wanted to gho back to the menu and resume partioning |
| 23:22.37 | dk0r | no. |
| 23:22.40 | dk0r | i did guide partition |
| 23:22.43 | demon | yeah... you need to |
| 23:22.43 | dk0r | guided |
| 23:22.53 | dk0r | well. guided leaves no free space |
| 23:22.59 | dk0r | so i have to do everything manualy? correct? |
| 23:23.14 | jao | the newworld partition was there when i installed together with mac os x last time i tried |
| 23:23.26 | demon | I guess... I've never tried guided partitioning, so I couldn't say |
| 23:23.31 | jao | and no manual setup of the boot partition was needed |
| 23:26.10 | jao | dk0r, is Mac OS X booting ok? |
| 23:26.31 | dk0r | yes |
| 23:26.39 | dk0r | it was |
| 23:26.45 | dk0r | before i entered debian install |
| 23:26.50 | jao | is it now? |
| 23:27.47 | dk0r | looks like its booting |
| 23:28.26 | dk0r | http://dk0r.org/DSCF0016.JPG |
| 23:28.44 | dk0r | that was after i did guided |
| 23:29.16 | jao | ok. then i suggest you enter the debian paritition util, free the 21 gigs space, and start over the installer. choose guided partitioning and use the largest available free space (that'll be the 21g chunk): all needed partitions should be there afterwards. |
| 23:29.31 | dk0r | ok |
| 23:29.37 | dk0r | one more question |
| 23:29.43 | dk0r | during install i have lines across screen? |
| 23:29.45 | dk0r | that normal |
| 23:29.51 | dk0r | or should i do install video=ofonly |
| 23:30.02 | jao | what's your machine? |
| 23:30.10 | dk0r | powerbook g4 17" 1.5 |
| 23:30.17 | dk0r | aluminum |
| 23:30.27 | jao | hm. i have an iBook and never saw those lines. |
| 23:30.40 | jao | i am not sure if you need the video flag |
| 23:30.48 | dk0r | will it hurt to do it? |
| 23:31.15 | dk0r | video flag = "install video=ofonly" correct? |
| 23:31.31 | jao | not sure |
| 23:31.38 | dk0r | ok screw it for now |
| 23:32.32 | jao | (btw, your screenshot looks ok: you already have a 'boot'... did you follow the installation steps in the order suggested by the installer or did you skip any one?) |
| 23:33.01 | dk0r | im going to say now, since idk what steps your refering to |
| 23:33.07 | dk0r | no* |
| 23:33.24 | dk0r | i read a few things |
| 23:33.28 | dk0r | in which i used my os x cd |
| 23:33.30 | dk0r | to boot |
| 23:33.40 | dk0r | and formated the partition as a linux format |
| 23:33.52 | dk0r | it then started to install os x on the partion after formating |
| 23:33.57 | dk0r | and i manualy powered the unit down |
| 23:34.03 | dk0r | removed os x cd |
| 23:34.16 | dk0r | booted to main partition |
| 23:34.20 | jao | (no need to do that. note, also, that the 21g must be split in two partitions, to make room for swap) |
| 23:34.28 | dk0r | used disk utility to erase 21gb partition |
| 23:34.29 | dk0r | and here i am |
| 23:34.38 | dk0r | jao: how do i split it? |
| 23:34.51 | dk0r | os x boot, or disk utility offer no such feature |
| 23:35.00 | jao | if you erased the partition, you don't need to do that beforehand |
| 23:35.19 | dk0r | i found an app online, that claimed to resize partition is os x, but they wanted 60 bucks |
| 23:35.22 | jao | just restart with deb netinst and C. then, RET and follow the steps :) |
| 23:35.22 | dk0r | and i couldnt find a crack |
| 23:35.36 | dk0r | C. ? |
| 23:35.39 | dk0r | RET ? |
| 23:35.49 | jao | C - to boot from cdrom |
