YDL on a hopped-up 8600 ... i know it MIGHT, but WILL IT?

[OpenMacNews]

hi all,

brand new here. :D

i've got a Mac 8500/150 with the following upgrades:

        Sonnet Crescendo 333 MHZ G3 CPU upgrade
        Sonnet Tempo66 ATA card w/ two 40 Mb ATA drives (no motherboard ATA/SCSI drive)
        2 - Asante 696 100bT ethernet cards
        512 MB RAM

currently, with the help of MacSales' XPostFacto, its running latest-n-greatest OSX 10.3.5 just peachy!  i'm booting from an 8GB partition on one of the Sonnet-mounted drives ...

i'd like to get a different firewall option that OSX's native ipfw (not even v2, for pete's sake!).  preferably iptable, or even better pf.

since no ports exsit to MacOSX, AFAIK, my best option is to change OS to a *NIX sys.

although FreeBSD is, supposedly, an option on PPC now, YDL seems to be a WHOLE LOT more mac-freindly by its very root-n-nature.

soooo, my simple question is:

can anyone *verify* that YDL will work with the above config?  i know its not *officiallY* supported ...  perfectly fine with that, just wanna know that it does/can work.

specific howto/advice/sanity-checks would be VERY MUCH appreciated!

cheers,

richard
