Arch/PPC - how can we test...?
Hi all,
These last few months, I've been juggling with quite a few linux distro (Arch->Debian unstable->Fedora dev.->Ubuntu dev.->Arch 
and now I'm back on Arch linux and plan to stick with it!
However, I have an iBook and would like to test the PPC version of Arch that I heard was under development (ref. LinuxTag).
So, what is the best way to help testing on PPC...?
Thanks a lot!

Hmmm I would need a New World installer for sure...:(
Is there any website where I can track the development..?

You can do a search for PPC and that should give you some threads to look for and just who is heading up the project. From there you can contact them and find out if you can install it or help out.

Allright, thanks for your answers!
I already did some search before posting but I'll look again and try to contact the "leader" of the project!

Re: Arch/PPC - how can we test...?
i'm currently in a phase where i am not on the wired very often. we just recently moved to a new appartment so we dun have a connection at home yet.
this will end on the 10th of august - hopefully. 
anyway, if i can be of hellp ask me when i'm around or bother cnuke on #archlinux-ppc
everything you prolly need is hosted on a server that i'd rather not make too public for misc. reasons. but if you ask me nicely i'll provide you with an iso you can boot from at least or a few lines on howto use other distro's bootcds to install arch. simply drop me a line at alexander -dot- baldeck (at) icomedias.com for now.
sorry for the trouble.
