Title: Yellow Dog Linux for the AmigaOne now hosted on IntuitionBase
Post by: System on July 13, 2005, 01:48:43 PM

With the demise of MAI's website and ftp space the yellow dog linux distribution for the AmigaOne was no longer available, that is no longer the case.

Thanks to the help of a few good people I now have all the YDL ISO's and support files and I am now hosting them through IntuitionBase, to get to the files please go here (http://intuitionbase.com/static.php?section=ydl).

What about YDL4? YDL3 is a bit outdated.

Mai's website is still up - I was there literally two days ago.

""Mai's website is still up - I was there literally two days ago.""


But where is the YDL3 for AmigaOne?  ;-)

The downloading should be much less of a pain now compared with downloading from MAI's former ftp.

Is there any advantage to running Yellow Dog instead of/as well as Debian?

@Red_Melons

No advantage.
It is just a matter of taste.
If you prefer Red Hat rather that Debian on the x86, then try YDL.
Otherwise stay with Debian. :-)
