Juestblast007: what was the last bzf to run on os x 10.3.9?21:28
Juestand the last to run on os9?21:29
blast007I don't know if it ever ran on OS921:42
blast00710.3.9 would probably just be the last PPC build21:42
blast007so, probably some 2.0 version21:42
blast007actually, I'm not sure if any 2.4 release was universal21:43
Juest:p21:45
blast007we don't have detailed platform support information for each release on the bzflag.org site21:45
Juestlots of changes needed to downgrade the c++ to whats compatible with what shipped back then?21:45
blast007I don't think modern Xcode supports the PPC target21:46
blast007nor the macOS SDK for that old of a version21:46
Juestim not talking about modern xcode21:47
Juestthe current minimum is 10.1321:47
Juestthe previous was 10.11, and before that 10.521:47
blast007I was gonna install linux on a G5 Mac Pro, but it didn't like the SSD I have.  Seems I might have to get a specific drive for that system since some SATA3 drives don't work correctly on it.21:53
blast007not gonna spend money on that though until I know that my work will sell/give me that system21:54
Juesttry adelie on that mac, blast007 :)22:38
Juestit might work out better22:38
blast007think I was trying Debian's PPC or PPC64 port.22:41
blast007booted to the installer fine, but my SSD wasn't detected.22:41
Juestgive adelie a try :)22:41
Juestshould be better22:42
Juestits not without problems but its something22:42
blast007it's a hardware limitation, not a software issue22:42
blast007I think the Power Mac G5 has SATA1, and some/most SATA3 drivers either don't properly fall back to SATA1, or there's some other compatability issue with them when they try22:44
blast007drives*22:44
blast007https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/internal_storage/Mercury_Extreme_SSD_Sandforce/Solid_State_Pro   <--- that's what I would get for it22:44
Juestoh i see22:47
