2003 PowerBooks?

I posted here a few weeks ago about the same question. One person
sent some specifics that require a custom kernel and several other
mods. My personal interest is in getting a YDL (or other) distro
that installs and "just runs" on the new powerbooks. The 12" G4 one
you mention is exactly the one I am interested in, too.

A day or so after the reply I received was posted, Dan Burcaw
replied to the guy asking, if I recall, if he really got it working
as stated. Memory may fail me, though. Search the archives.
Generally, though, it sounds like the new models are not ready for
distro prime time.

Regards,
