RHEL 4 PPC install problem 2006-06-26 - By Juha Vierinen
Back
I am hoping to install Red Hat Application Server v. 2 (AS v. 4 for
ppc) on a apple powermac dual ppc970 2.0GHz. The checksum for the DVD
is valid, but I cannot get it to boot. The iso doesn't even seem to be
valid, atleast I cannot mount it. Here is the link:

I have been able to install Fedora Code 5 on the machine. Even after
having to manually reconfigure the bootloader, I was pleasently
surprised of how well it seemed to work, after fighting with some
other PPC distros. But this isn't enough yet. I would like to get
RHEL4 working, because it is required by XL Fortran 10.1. (I have also
been able to install XL Fortran on fedora, but it is not fully
functional.)
Can anybody tell me if there even exists a PPC RHEL4, and what are the
chances of getting it running on a powermac. On the other hand, if
somebody knows how to get XL Fortran 10.1 running smoothly on eg.
Fedora, I will just consider the price I paid for RHEL as a
contribution to Linux devolopment...
