No. I saw nothing that indicated support for oldworld Macs -- "if you can persuade them to boot they probably ought to work" shows they haven't been tried and that I would have a hard time in any case, and on PenguinPPC.org, I found a table [2] saying only newworld for Fedora. I did start downloading the F12Beta PPC torrent, but it was slow (few seeds, few peers), and I found the lack of support before it got far. The F11 PPC torrent is fast (but still no peers or sharing). Now back to my question. Have /you/ installed a recent Fedora on an oldworld PCI Mac? Or do you know of anyone who has?
