Official Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 powerpc binary CDs

• Official PowerPC binary disks 1 to 7. These disks contain all the binary packages comprising Debian for most Apple PowerMacs and other PowerPC-based computers, and an installation system which is bootable directly from the CD on PReP machines and New World PowerMacs. Details of exactly which machines are supported can be found in section 2.1.2 of the Debian GNU/Linux installation manual for PowerPC, while details of which machines support CD-ROM booting and how to cause them to boot from CD-ROM can be found in section 5.2. For machines which are not able to boot from CD-ROM, disk images are supplied on binary CD 1 which can be used to boot the installation system from floppy.

  If you have an internet connection, binary disk 1 may be all you need. It includes the installation system and the most commonly used packages. The installation system can download any other packages you need over the network. The other disks include all the other packages in very roughly decreasing order of popularity.

  These disks' reference numbers are:

  30r0-powerpc-2   [ file list ]

  30r0-powerpc-3   [ file list ]

  30r0-powerpc-4   [ file list ]

  30r0-powerpc-5   [ file list ]

  30r0-powerpc-6   [ file list ]

  30r0-powerpc-7   [ file list ]

  Also available is a crippled USA-friendly version of disk 1. You probably don't want this. It's just like the full non-US version, but with certain packages which may interact badly with some US laws removed. The other disks don't have crippled versions because they don't contain any of the affected packages.

  The reference number is:
