PowerLogix G3/G4 Cache Profiler + LinuxPPC 1999

Application file:

PowerLogix manufactured 3rd party G3 and G4 upgrade cards for Macintosh. This is their driver software for a G3 daughter card from 1999. PowerLogix included a full install of LinuxPPC 1999 Release 5, on the CD which came with the G3 daughter card.

I've added a copy of the driver for anyone who needs it, separate from the CD, so they don't need to DL 500 MBs of unrelated Linux software just to get the 400KB driver software.

I'm also archiving the entire CD for historical interest. LinuxPPC was a very good Linux to run at the time, based largely on Red Hat ports.

Compatibility:
