oh yeah ... The most painful ever

The installer didn't recognize the video, fix that and the keyboard wont run ..

When i finally got it installed, the boot loader didn't work, so had to fix that,

then finally with it all working, the MBA was changed under warranty, and the boot-loader was lost again.

but when it goes, mac on linux is kind of nice.

I am so busy with the desktop distro comparisons nowadays I don't think I have booted Mandrake PPC for ages. I personally found it slow and the wireless was difficult to use, then the LCD went, so I use it with an external monitor and a kvm switch, so its been replaced as a laptop, and that one runs yoper as it handled the acpi better than any of the others.
