HAHAHAHA!!

   As far as i know there was one distro of 68k Linux. But I don't know if you can even find it anymore.

But you can still indulge in some retro Mac goodness with the thing. You can play Dark Castle!!!!!

The most ultimately cool game ever!!!!!

I can also send you some old Mac Classic stuff if ya want.

Oh, and don't forget MacWrite, MacPaint, Illustrator 1.0. SuperPaint Wooooo!

Hehe... Fun fun fun...

Oh, you can play the first and only game Apple ever made and published themselves. It's called Alice.

ravuya:
I think you need at least a 68030 + PMMU to run any kind of Unix other than MacMinix.

But a Classic makes for a great typewriter, I'm told.

Kintaro:
Yep i think i will keep it retrocool the way it is.
I love it, i use it for typing, how can i accsess my MAC floppys in Windows, and link it to my pc via Para Port or somthing, to accsess the net from it or somthing.

I have heaps of old games, Microsoft Works 2.0, MacWrite II, and HyperCard. Other crap like KidPix and stuff as well, what do you have psyjax. It makes a good typeriter, but the mouse had to go thru the dishwasher first.  

The keybored is in good condition.

Where can i get development tools for the beast.

It rules, it does, it does. ALso for the software to accsess mac floppys, can it work in Linux.


I might go look at www.linux.org
and find a distro.

Anyway the thing is wickedly mad.

Loving every bit!

Calum:
i have a feeling that you won't be able to access mac floppies using windows, i hoped you could access them in linux, but it seems not, i can't get floppies to mount as anything but ext2 or msdos.

Doesn't MacOS have some tool for using msdos format floppies instead? so you can use msdos as the standard for all yr OSs? or is that only on later versions of the OS?

hey, get an external 4 gig hard drive, so you can stick tons of extra stuff on it! then you could triple boot BeOS, linux and MacOS all in one go! (or can you not do that from an external drive?)
