Heya! As I write I'm installeing Woody (Link to Sarge wasn't working...
wasn't dead... just stalled, so I did woody for now) on my ol' PowerMac
7300 next to me. A while back I downloaded all 14 disks of Sarge for
x86. With my one-disk Debian 3.0r3 PPC disk I'm installing the base
system on my Mac.
What I want to know is if I can plug in the x86 disks and install
software from them, so I don't have to spend all day downloading stuff
for the Mac. So: Are .deb packages arch independant? I gather so, just
want to make sure (Debian newbie here). And... would it really mess
things up if I used the Sarge x86 disks as apt-get sources on my Woody
PPC system?
Thanx in advance, and please CC this to me, I'm more likely to
see it that way,
SigmaChi
