Is anyone using Debian on the PPC or other 'alternative' architecture
(alpha, sparc, etc)?
I'm considering stanardizing on Debian for my servers, due in part to
their support for more non-x86 architectures than any of the commercial
disto's (hopefully allowing me to resurrect some 500 MHz Alpha systems
from the boneyard as decent web/dns/e-mail servers).
I have the alpha CD's of debian, but haven't tried installing yet...
