Hi After a lot of difficulties I managed to boot a linux kernel. Afterwards I downloaded the mbxroot.full.tgz (130MB). That seems to start up but it lacks a lot of networking stuff and furthermore it is built upon Redhat3.0. In my opinion I should now work on a more actual distribution. (Did rh3 support elf?) Question: - Does someone know where to get such a precompiled distribution for ppc 860 - How did you proceed? Did u build all the stuff yourselfs? TIA, Ruedi
