Debian Sarge was the last official version that I'm aware of. It's probably buried somewhere on the Debian site.

I believe this link will take you to what your looking for:

http://www.debian.org/releases/sarge/debian-installer/

Download any of the releases under m68k...

Hope this helps...

Look through the mirrors on the Debian website. Some of them have the older releases. As a warning though, it is SUPER DUPER slow on my 2000. Of course, I am running the bare minimum system requirements (8mb ram, 020) so hopefully you have something a little more powerful.

It'll probably equal to running it on a 386 system. That is, painfully slow.

Note: this list is old.

Supported graphics cards (with device names for 2.1/2.2 kernels); see also the Framebuffer HOWTO:

    *

      Phase5 Cybervision 64 (cyber)
    *

      Phase5 Cybervision 64/3D (virge: 2.0.33+, with patches)
    *

      Phase5 BVision PPC and Cybervision PPC (pm2fb): See the Permedia2 framebuffer page for the files you need and any updates; the driver only works under Linux/APUS at the moment (but should be fairly easy to get running under Linux/m68k).
    *

      Retina Z3 (retz3)
    *

      Cirrus Logic (clgen): See the CLGen page for the files you need and any updates; the drivers should be included in most recent kernels. Note that instructions for using the CLGen driver are not included in the kernel sources, so you will need the CLGen source package for the documentation, even with recent kernels.

          o

            Piccolo
          o

            Piccolo SD64
          o

            VillageTronic Picasso II
          o

            VillageTronic Picasso IV
          o

            GVP Spectrum



NOTE: Like the gfx cards this list is old. The x-sirf is supported.

Supported Ethernet cards:

    *

      Commodore A2065 (a2065)
    *

      VillageTronic Ariadne (ariadne)
    *

      VillageTronic Ariadne2 (kernels 2.0.36+/2.1.124+; ariadne2)
    *

      BSC AlfaData Hydra (aka Hydranet; hydra)
    *

      CNET40 (PCMCIA; apne)
    *

      LinkSys (PCMCIA; apne)





email: debian-68k-REQUEST@lists.debian.org

with the subject of subscribe to join the list.. Work is slowly moving forward to get a 4.x release done.
