Welcome to Linux/mac68k!
The goal of this project is to port Linux to the 68k-based Macintoshes (not PowerMacs) and
support as much of the associated hardware as possible. There are currently ports of the
2.2, 2.4 and 2.6 kernels. Just about every Mac with a 68030 or better processor is
usable in some form under Linux/mac68k, though support for certain hardware devices is still
under development. A 68020 CPU with 68851 PMMU should work also. Older 68000-based Macs are
not supported. For more information on which machines will work, see the
machine status page.
If you're new to Linux/mac68k, see the documentation section
where you can find the FAQ and instructions on how to get started
installing Linux on your machine.
We need developers! If you're interested in lending a hand, send email to the
mailing list. Programming and
kernel experience is nice to have, but not necessary.
