iMac 350/DV/DV SE Linux HowTo

[John Buswell]

The team at iMac Linux (http://www.imaclinux.net) has managed to get the
iMac DV to boot linux to a usable point. We have put together a small
howto on how to achieve this Open Firmware boot and how to kludge a root
file system onto your iMac.

You can find the HowTo at:

The iMac DV currently has ethernet (through the Dec Tulip device driver)
and USB support, and appears to function quite fast as well!
