Fedora Core 6 or 7 on PPC?

Fedora Core 6 or 7 on PPC?

[Wolfgang Denk]

Hi,

has anybody Fedora Core 6 (or even better FC7 - test) running on a PPC
system? Could you please send me the /root/install.log file from your
system? I'd like to know which packages get installed by default, and
in which order.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

I don't have an up-to-date version of it right here, but in case you
are trying to do an installation of the minimal rpm files from a
running system, I can recommend the following procedure:

rpm --root /fc7/ --initdb
rpm --root /fc7/ -ivh --nodeps ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/Mirrors/fedora.redhat.com/linux/core/development/ppc/os/Fedora/fedora-release-*.noarch.rpm
yum --installroot=/fc7/ -y groupinstall Base

Thanks a lot - that was exactly what I was looking for without knowing
that it exitsts.

Where did you get this  information  from?  The  man  page  does  not
explain any of the group* actions ?

Best regards,

I googled for fedora and debootstrap when I last needed this.
