@sassageflare well, that's why I I'd use a "" [] because this way one can freely choose between / , , and for their Host System....

But admittedly, modern high-end systems are kinda "boring"...

first experimental big endian iso is available: repo.chimera-linux.org/live/te

here is it running from usb on my 2005 g5

keep in mind it's a tier 3 architecture, so don't expect perfection

the repo is now experimentally available (tier 3) on big endian , for now outside the common infra (thanks @AdelieLinux for the compute resources necessary for the initial repo build, they were most helpful)

buildbot, isos, (maybe 32-bits too?) etc. coming soon

currently bootstrapping the system for (big endian)

minimum cpu is 970 (G5); altivec required (this may change in longer term)

32-bit was tested but put on the back burner due to some toolchain issues (may be reevaluated later)

Ya que tengo @netbsd@twitter.com instalado en mi @thepine64@twitter.com voy a intentar instalar netbsd también en mi g5 dual
Ahora lo tengo con @gentoo@twitter.com ppc64 pero no hay binarios precompilados y es un coñazo compilar desde cero todo…

I would love to run FreeBSD for on my Power Macintosh G5 dual-proc. I fear that most of the ports will be little-endian, but there is some hope here for big-endian systems.
