    (first off, I realize that multi crossposting is frowned on, but I hope
    in this case it's justified)

    I have a macintosh powerbook duo 2300c- is there a version of linux that
    runs properly on this thing? ie- can use internal keyboard and lcd,
    serial port and external floppy work, can get drivers for a newertech
    ethernet microdock, etc.

    if yes, where do I find info about it? I've tried various sites like
    linuxppc and mac linux, but they all seem to be down, the links to the
    pages I want end up 404ing, or the pages haven't been updated in
    years... anyone have any current info? I've heard reports of people
    stuffing YDL on one of these, but I can't seem to find much info on that
    either.

    for those of you not familiar with the machine, it's an oldworld class-
    PPC/NuBus, no openfirmware that I'm aware of.

    anyway, any help would be appreciated! TIA

    it's been a strange day.
    not even a "2+2=5" kind of day, more like "2+2=... fish".
