The Debian Mac needs more memory

  2008-09-18 14:00:04
I've taken to calling my Power Macintosh G4/466 the Debian Mac. I continue to be amazed at how well Debian Etch runs on this thing with 466 MHz of PowerPC CPU and a smallish 128 MB of RAM. (I'll take this opportunity to repeat that on this box, Etch runs many a ring around Fedora 9's PowerPC port). The best thing I could do for the usability of this box is to up the RAM.
