Hi Everyone I just installed Yellow Dog Linux (v 5.02) on an old G4 Powerpc replacing the Mac OSX. The system is running beautifully. I would like to install R on this system. I am not sure how to go about doing it. I have installed R on my Ubuntu system as well as on Mac OSX but there are binaries available for those systems from the R Project site. The Yellow Dog Linux is rpm based and has a package management tool called yum. The distribution is derived from Red Hat Linux but is specially designed for the G3/G4/G5 Powerpc architecture. As far as I know, there are no repositories for this particular distro to install R. I was wondering if there is a way to get access to other repositories to install R on my system. I would appreciate any suggestions and guidance. Regards, Tariq [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
