| Yellow Dog Linux 2.3 found! |
Posted by: PowerPup on 2009-11-24 14:49:16
I've been wanting to get YDL 2.3 or 3.0 for a long time so I could try it out on my PowerMac 6100. But I couldn't find the CD images anywhere. 🙁 I finally found a site with the iso for YDL 2.3! :rambo:
It hosts ISOs for 2.0 through 2.3.
http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/yellowdog/iso/
I also found this site which hosts ISOs for 4.0 and 4.1 (as well as 5.0)
http://ftp.mirror.sptel.com.au/pub/yellowdog/iso/
Install guides can be found here:
http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/support/installation/archives/
http://www.ydl.net/support/solutions/ydl_2.x/
MD5SUMS for YDL 2.0 - 2.3
Nubus 2.4 kernels for YDL and Debian.
I'm currently downloading YDL 2.3. Even with DSL, it's going to take 2-3 hours to download because the server is slow. Once it's done I could probably burn some extras if anyone is interested.
Edit: weird. The download said it was about 650MB. but It stopped or acted like it's finished at 173MB... Going to burn on a CD-RW to see if it really is finished or if I need to download again...

Have you also tried MkLinux?

Yeah, that's exactly what happened. Re-downloading right now.

It's done downloading now. Found out it would download faster if I used different computer. 😛 Let you know my progress when I try it on my 6100. 😀

Did you manage to get it working?
(Yes... old... I know.)

I don't remember if I tried booting from the disc or not... I did install MkLinux on it though. (Which is also RedHat based.)

While I'm necro'ing things:
Do you know of a download link for 3.0.1? (or 3) I can't seem to find one.
Also:
http://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/yellowdog/iso/ Appears to have died xx(
EDIT- Found the .iso for 3 (Hopefully, they will work.)
