| 08:36.56 | harisamin | then i tried to upgrade to feisty and for some reason that didnt work...i cant rememebr what exactly happened but i know i had to reinstall ubuntu |
| 08:36.59 | harisamin | so since then |
| 08:37.00 | benoitc | mm ubuntu ? |
| 08:37.18 | benoitc | i don't know if ubuntu ppc works well |
| 08:37.21 | harisamin | i've been trying to install ubuntu badger, dapper, edgy with no sucches |
| 08:37.29 | harisamin | every single time |
| 08:37.31 | benoitc | try etch so |
| 08:37.36 | harisamin | it goes to the base installation system |
| 08:37.41 | harisamin | and it gives me a debootstrap error |
| 08:37.45 | harisamin | i then tried etch too |

| 08:54.01 | harisamin | oh sorry |
| 08:54.07 | harisamin | G4 powermac powerpc |
| 08:54.10 | harisamin | 500 mhz |
| 08:55.40 | harisamin | benoitc: u there? |
| 08:56.59 | benoitc | i don't see why you have this error |
| 08:57.17 | benoitc | works well here but never tried to install on a second hd |
| 08:57.57 | harisamin | yeah |
| 08:58.04 | harisamin | i just dont get how it was working fine |
| 08:58.08 | harisamin | but now it wont work again |
| 08:58.50 | benoitc | why had'nt yojust done dist-upgrade ? |
| 08:59.26 | harisamin | that is how i upgraded |
| 08:59.47 | harisamin | but i think it didnt upgrade from edgy to feisty properly because feisty doesnt have powerpc support anymore |
| 08:59.55 | harisamin | and i didnt know that at the time |
| 09:01.16 | benoitc | mmm |
| 09:06.45 | harisamin | benoitc: is there anoother debian based distro for the powerpc that i can try |
| 09:11.14 | benoitc | don't think so |
