It's hot. I'm tired. Two great tastes that taste great together, right?

I've given up for the moment on Yellowdog. They're nice binders, but even when you pull off installation, there's just too much broken in Yellowdog. Even BootX, which is pretty boneheadedly basic for PowerPC/G3 installations, doesn't work right. If you select "no video driver," it doesn't do what it should -- namely, copy the configuration information from the Mac video setup and use that. So, X-Window doesn't work and neither does KDE, Gnome or the rest.

So, I'm downloading LinuxPPC. It's a slow process -- download a batch of files, do other stuff, see where the files hit the "connection reset," check what the last file saved was, save the files after it, wash, rinse, repeat.

Perfect for a mind bogglingly tired afternoon. And it looks like a winner. At least in the documentation. I like its organization and its installation readmes. It seems to cover all the bases from the tired point of view of people who had done this a thousand times before. Which is why it's possible for me to download LinuxPPC, where Yellow Dog was mostly designed to be... well, good looking.

Rassafrassin' commercial distributions... well, serves me right for choosing an OS distribution solely because the binder looked good and they dedicated the thing to a golden retriever. But it goes well for now, though I'm tired, as I said.

We're all tired today. It must be the weather. But what about the weather, I just don't know.

Anyway, that's all from here. I'm too tired to be witty.
