+!!Installing Ubuntu Breezy Badger on an OldWorld [
G3] [PowerPC]
.
!Preamble
I got given a G3 Server a while back, and finally got around to making a [mac-to-VGA|http://www.hardwarebook.net/adapter/av/macvideotovga.html] adapter for it. Specs are 300MHz PowerPC, 192M ram, 5G SCSI drive. Plus the usual on-board serial ports, network, sound, DTB keyboard and single button mouse. It was running MacOS9 and came with MacOS8 install CD's. In the time I've had it I've tried Debian, Warty, Warty kubuntu and most recently Breezy kubuntu with a nice OSX-like theme (it looks a lot like OSX, Cairo informs me it doesn't behave at all like their school Mac's so I guess I need some time on a real OSX desktop to get the behaviour right. I've never used OSX.)
