    GRUB is possible on G5 Macs. The inofficial Debian PPC64 builds depend on it.

    2.5 GiB is the maximum for the hardware.

    You may start from that thread:

    > is it 100e for G5 via PayPal?

    "The price is 79 EUR for one laptop or desktop computer. Special pricing of 49 EUR per device is offered for EfikaPPC and Sam460 systems."

    Yes, they can of course. For file size over 4 GiB and/or partition size over 2 TiB, I'd recommed ExFAT or NTFS-3G, though. I'm not sure about ExFAT for PPC Mac OS, but NTFS-3G exists for it.

    There's no need to delete OS4 in order to use MorphOS on the Sam460 :-)
