[powerstation-owners] Ubuntu Jaunty on PowerStation.

[Luke Yelavich]

Hi all
I'm writing to let you know that as of about half an hour ago, I have Ubuntu Jaunty running on the PowerStation.  There are still bits that need to be fixed up, such as the firmware flash files etc under /proc/rtas, and maybe other things I haven't checked yet, but Ubuntu is running, with Compiz working out of the box with the ATI card.

I needed to make a few changes to parts of debian-installer, and even then I ran into a few snags installing, which required manual hackery. My plan is to iron out the issues, and send patches to Debian to be included in Debian Installer, for use there, and for use in Ubuntu as well. I will make an ISO of Ubuntu Jaunty available when Jaunty is released if anyone is interested in using it.
