I have an IBook G3 (everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/specs/ibook_600_2.html)
and I want to install Ubuntu (10.04 desktop PowerPC). The medium I use never shows up when I start up holding option so I try to load it from Open Firmware, but every time I try and install it I get all of these errors: "block0 is bad can't open", "load size is too small", "can't OPEN enet:bootp" "no specified file-name"....etc,etc. Ive been using a microsd 2GB with adapter in place of an actual USB drive, and a CD-RW instead of a CD-R so i can rewrite to it. I've even tried installing MintPPC 11 and Fedora with the same errors. Can someone help me out?
