| 19:23.44 | soda__hobart | hi! |
| 19:24.14 | soda__hobart | i'm trying to install debian 8 on a g3 ibook from the net-installer CD and i am having trouble setting up the mirror for the package manager |
| 19:24.53 | soda__hobart | none of the mirrors on the list support the 32-bit ppc architecture and i'm not sure what address to provide manually |
| 19:26.15 | soda__hobart | do i just need to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list ? |
| 19:31.08 | donofrio | soda__hobart, https://rsaxvc.net/blog/2020/7/3/Installing_Debian_10_on_a_PowerMac_G5.html might work on g4 and g3 |
| 19:31.37 | donofrio | soda__hobart, the steps should be the same except the installer will pick the correct 32-bit kernel for you, and disabling the open source Nvidia driver may not be necessary. |
| 19:33.17 | soda__hobart | oh cool, this looks helpful |
| 19:33.24 | donofrio | ;) |
| 19:33.39 | soda__hobart | i will setup the ssh server thing because i'm having trouble getting the graphics to work |
| 19:33.46 | donofrio | yep |
| 19:34.12 | soda__hobart | it won't boot to the console, maybe it is trying to start X but not finding anything because it's not installed? or some problem with drivers or firmware? |
| 19:34.32 | donofrio | lots of "fun" ahead |
| 19:34.36 | soda__hobart | haha |
| 19:34.40 | soda__hobart | it's been fun so far |
| 19:35.26 | soda__hobart | does this address: http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/ sound like it will work for the mirror? |
| 19:36.28 | soda__hobart | there's one way to find out... |
| 19:36.46 | donofrio | give it a try |
| 19:40.51 | donofrio | if compllete sadness it's not debian but you could also try #voidlinux-ppc |
| 19:41.32 | soda__hobart | cool, thanks |
| 19:42.01 | soda__hobart | it looks like i need to finish the installation without the donwloads mirror and fix that after it finishes installation but before rebooting |
| 20:11.05 | donofrio | yep |
| 20:14.10 | soda__hobart | woo! i'm getting somewheres... |
