Efika 5k2

[Fingers]

Sure, 2.6 supports Efika. But I really thought G4 powermacs were cheaper and easier to find, and certainly much better machines in terms of CPU, RAM etc.

Indeed. I'd considered selling my Efika just recently, but now with 2.6 PowerMac support, it's made the Efika worthless! Hahahahaha

Very difficult to install the MorphOS version in this motherboard, only via "Internet" or with one special pendrive that the Efika recognizes.

Not hard at all. Download the file with some other computer & stick it on the USB drive, then install location, choose the USB drive instead of the internet.

So far web browsing is out of the question

No it's not. I got inspired by these posts tonight & got mine out of the cupboard...hello, posting this from my Efika

Fingers, you are connected through lan? directly on a router?

Yep, no configuration required, it just works.

The browser was installed with Morph os?

I'm using OWB 1.9: http://fabportnawak.free.fr/owb/
However, I think MOS 2.6 may come with this version anyway (can't recall my update a few weeks ago?).

I strongly suggest NOT doing the internet installation of MOS if you buy that Efika.
Better to download both required files & do it "locally".
Please advise if you get it & need help with this.
