That's right, the mascara snake - fast 'n' bulbous!

I'm new here - I'm fixin' to replace OS X on our Xserve with YellowDog.
Will try at home on a PPC with networking tools to get a feel for it first.
Although so far have been unable to install on an old PPC 5500 - may try
debian there, too, but I think YDL is the way to go on a slot-loading
Xserve.

If the 5500 is recalcitrant I'll find another Mac box to play with.

I use debian on X86 at home, so I'm familiar with the Penguin, but not
(yet) with Linux networking.

(Also familiar with FreeBSD on X86, and I have to say that Mac OS X
_buh-LOWS_ in comparison!)
