I always wanted to test out other Unix OS on my PC but never got around to it. I know that the OSx is based on Unix but wanted to know if I can run other OS's on the Mac.
These people claim to have a pre-PPC port of Linux for the Mac.Originally posted by lind0834
If you have a PPC Yellow Dog is a favorite.

Others I have tried without so much luck.. and even worse luck trying to get linux on a pre PPC machine.

WARNING: Do not install/use any other OS, especially Yellow Dog Linux, if you've used Mac OS X for more than a month. You will miss it too much!!!
I spent President's Day weekend (all three days) imaging, erasing, partitioning, restoring, installing, reinstalling and using YDL as a dual-boot with my Mac OS X. I hated it!! I apologize to all the YDL faithfuls out there, but I hated YDL.
