Lfs on my powerbook


Hi
I have a powerbook G4 12"rev-b and when it gets a little older and the mac osx get to heavy for the machine i want to make a lfs system on it.
And i have a couple of questions:
1.Can someone give me a link to a good howto with lfs on ppc?
2.Has anyone got the airport extreme card to work under linunx and how?
3.Does the dvd-burner work under linux?

Cheers erling

Well, there is a hint on the LFS website for building it from OSX. I haven't tried it yet myself but it seems logical enough. I plan to do that soon, but I want to try it on a PC first. As they say, walk before you can run!

Here's the hint: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hint...s-from-osx.txt

Thanks, i have found out that there is no module for airport extreme.
So you may want to wait until linux support airport extreme if you have it.
