NVROM virus on iBook G4 ??

Hello cruel cruel World .


I have tried with 4 different versions of Linux or UNIX for PowerPC .


Before that , I tried to dual-boot with a de-facto Mac OS 10.5.(?) Leopard for PowerPC . I picked a BSD UNIX OS .


Initially it worked then it froze and the hard drive crashed (FAT broke.) Perhaps a rouge versioning .



Then I used a LIVE CD of UNIX PowerPC which on the Home Site said it has a GUI with the text prompt command window . It was false there was only a text mode prompt . During installation without a-priori mandate asked for my PASSWORD to MY ROUTER !



After that I have tried using LIVE CD and it does not install . And the command prompt at the BIOS screen did alll types of weird things due to what I suspicious of as NVROM virus .


I definitely wants the original Leopard OS not an imitator(?)


Bye cruel world .

Hi


I was unable to find the serial number after login onto the Web site to Apple customer support .

The serial number to the iBook g4 i registered few months ago !



If Apple would remain competitive and allow customers to download Leopard , then Apple could earn market share which would prove useful in a supra-hyper-compettive information age not only computer age . Influence would count too .
