|
hey im trying to install gentoo 2005.0 on an iBook G3 Clamshell that has an airport card installed and ethernet, now i cant seem to pull an ip from the dhcp server on the network, ive tested the cables and i think its safe to assume for the moment that the ethernet is non functional is there a way i can install just using the airport card, oh and im using the "Gentoo Linux - Gentoo PPC64 (Apple G5) Minimal Installer" gotten from http://linuxiso.org, help would be greatly appericated!  thanks in advance
