Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux PowerPC (CODENAME) You have the choice of installing your system using one of two different versions, 'debian' or 'debian24'. The 'debian' option is the default; it uses version 2.2 of the Linux kernel and is proven to be stable on most hardware. The 'debian24' option is based on the 2.4 Linux kernel, and is a bit more cutting-edge, but it has better support for newer hardware. If you have a Power Macintosh computer manufactured within the last six months, definitely choose 'debian24'. Additionally, there are 'debian-safe' and 'debian24-safe' options which you should try if the system fails to boot at all (the typical symptom is a white screen which doesn't go away). ************************************ If in doubt, just choose 'debian', and if that doesn't work, try 'debian24', 'debian-safe', and 'debian24-safe' in that order. ************************************
