[ale] Linux and Mac

[James Kinney]

I've been out of the Linux-on-Mac loop for a while, but I'm pretty sure
that Yellowdog will not run on the performa series. The performa series
don't have a PowerPC chip. They still use the Motorola 68000(XXX) series. 

There is a 68K Linux group, but they are _way_ behind having a
distribution available.

I think you have a boat anchor.

I downloaded their Champian server 1.2.1 and tried to install it onto the Mac, but can't.  Since I don't have a new generation CD bay, then i have to use bootx.  When I tried to copy the files neccessary for this, the computer gave me an error message.  It waid it was a "type -39" error.  I couldn't find the definition of this anywhere in the documentation.  Can anyone help me with this problem?  Thanks.
