<p><b>New page</b></p><div>This write-up is lookin' great, but needs some qualifiers. An x86 architecture is assumed in a lot of places, and should be noted early on. Indeed most Linux installations go on x86 based machines, but FG Portland (the Mothership) also puts Ubuntu Linux on PowerPC machines (Macs), for which the Boot Sequence is not quite the same. Hopefully someone will add a PPC Boot Sequence article someday...maybe even me.<br />
