Heh heh heh…I get to pass the buck again, sort of. JAG has also covered this on his site. I’m not going to totally pass the buck, though. NetBSD will run on most Macs from the Mac II on up. JAG has a tutorial on running Debian Linux on an SE/30 (which should be somewhat applicable to other Vintage Macs). Warning: unless you’re a real geek and have a desire to play around a LOT with stuff that doesn’t always make sense, don’t bother with trying to run Linux or UNIX on your Mac.
