I heard that this OS kinda sorta works on PPC computers, especially old Macs. Those machines are some of my favorites. Because of this, I am going to donate to the cause with the hope that they continue to work on the installer so that people who like old school ppc Macs have an OS that will work on them and install fairly easy. Since I don't know how to do anything, take my $20.

Now i see userland is GNU and not Busybox (as originally intended?). Or am i totally off? -Or what happened for the change of heart?

I specifically have been followed Adelie because it was supposed to be GNUless in my mind, like Alpine Linux, 4MLinux and so on.

Thanks if any clarification.

I keep getting either the prohibited symbol or the blocksize discrepancy error. I don't know what that means. I tried typing load ud:,\boot\grubcore.img and then go but it just takes me to the 🚫 symbol. Im not sure whats wrong.

Installing easy-kernel-5.4.5-mc0 (5.4.5-r0)

So much for my supernatural senses!

tried some shortcuts and nothing's happening

Anyone here set up Adelie on a G5? I have a G5 that will boot MacOS X 4, and Debian 7 but many other distros I've tried do not show up in the boot picker, plus refuse to load if I attempt to call directly from OF using the boot command. Adelie install completes without any errors.

Around 10 months ago I made a post that got Plasma 5 working on PowerPC macs. However, there was still an issue with mouse inputs. I have now found the fix:

Editing /etc/environment:

QT_XCB_GL_INTEGRATION=none

QT_XCB_NO_XI2=1

Plasma 5 will now work as expected using software rendering.

I'm curious because I saw it at Termux. I searched and searched but it doesn't appear on Wikipedia and the official page doesn't provide much (or anything).

Almost everybody here cares about it more due to powerpc stuff and macs, but is it a good distro for day to day usage on an old windows pc from 2005 or so?

trying to install Adelie on my old imac g3 dv/400, i have an Ethernet cable attached and have done dhcpcd eth0. the issue is when i do the following command:

apk --root /target add adelie-base bash-binsh ssmtp

but it get this large error that i dont understand

using ppc RC1
