Anyone playing with Darwin 0.2 binary yet?

Hi,

I was interested in playing around with Darwin (Apple's open BSD Unix
variant) and noticed the new binary available from
http://www.publicsource.apple.com

It says it will boot on most machines that MacOS server will.  And it now
includes EGCS as its compiler.

I have a PowerTower 604e system 200Mhz, PCI, 64 meg ram, etc.  It looks
like a suped up 7200 if I remember correctly.  The machine ID is 108.

Is anyone out in Linux PPC land also playing with Darwin?  Will the new
binary boot on my machine?  Are there any tricks I need to use to get it to
boot?

Thanks for any help.

Kevin
