is there one that would require little configuration to get sheepshaver compiled? i just tried with a mandrake 9.1 i had lying around and gave up after an hour of trying to fill dependencies.
i think a linux distro specifically designed for running sheepshaver would be great, but i doubt that exists or will ever happen.
what is a good linux distro to use sheepshaver with?

Mandrake is the recommended distro as the developer uses Mandrake (and works for MandrakeSoft).
Just remember to install the autoconfig, automake and libgtk1.2 packages to compile SheepShaver. Or use the pre-built RPM binary SheepShaver package.

(I use Mandrake 10.1 Official.)

Re: what is a good linux distro to use sheepshaver with?
Mandrake 9.1 is _very_ old. You should use 10.1. All updated distros can run SheepShaver w/o problems. I have tried it on Ubuntu, SUSE, Fedora Core and Debian.gnomes wrote:is there one that would require little configuration to get sheepshaver compiled? i just tried with a mandrake 9.1 i had lying around and gave up after an hour of trying to fill dependencies.
