i've been running linux on my PowerMac 7500 for years. As for embedded PPC or development PPC boards there are several to COTS (consumer of the shelf) to choose from. Boils down to what speed, power (electrical), and onboard options you want (i.e. sound, 4 serial ports, ethernet etc), bus type - SBC, pci, pc104, vme. check out http://www.cotsjournalonline.com bewarned - not for hobbyists prices... more like the military. Hobbyists can best look at old PowerPC computers or less powerful powerpc embedded boards from motorola/ibm. Are you looking for a PowerPC workstation or a PowerPC embedded computer? try http:\\www.linuxdevices.com good luck. Where is PPC guru huberj? -jeremy --- Norm Legare <normlegare@yahoo.com> wrote:
Yes, Linux is already ported to PowerPC. I am interested in doing the same port for my benefit.

Hello,
Does anyone know where to obtain PowerPC-type development boards. Preferably at hobbyist prices. I am interested in porting Linux to it.
Thanks in advance, Norm

Not sure, but isn't Linux already ported to PowerPC?
