hi,

i just put my DVD-RAM with my iso's into my G4 and am right now pumping=20=

up a few to my webserver...

these are iso-images for hardware of customers, friends or mine -- so=20
they are (partly) optimized to a certain architecture (via CFLAGS).

the images:

-current-macppc-nox-optimized-20041005.iso (-current from 5th oct 2004,=20=

optimized for G4/7400, no X)

2.0RC4-amiga-68060opt-withX.iso (Amiga w/68060 CPU, with X)

2.0RC4-amiga68040opt-withX.iso (dito for 68040)

2.0RC4-i386-P2mmxopt-withx.iso (for Pentium II machines, with X)

2.0RC4-i386-nox-p2mmx_optimized.iso (dito w/o X)

sparc and sparc64 just building (hope they go thru).

as soon as the images are on the server, you'll get the URLs (sometime=20=

tonite).

please feel free to get this into torrent -- unfortunately, i do not=20
have that much time now... :(

HTH,
