Virtual PC w/ RedHat Linux for the Macintosh

I am interested to hear from anyone who
is running Virtual PC/red hat linux?
I am wondering if this will work
on a PowerPC 8100/100 w/7.5.5 or
perhaps I should just install MK Linux.

If you have it running, I am interested
to know if the GNU stuff runs well,
particularly Fortran stuff, and GNU plot.

please email me with your experiences on
Virtual PC.  thanks in advance.

email as well as post, since i may not
get back to this newsgroup before 
posts get recycled

I tried running it on a G3 500, and still found it to be unbearably
slow. Try SuSE, Yellowdog or one of the others.

The OP is looking to run it on an 8100; MkLinux will be his only option.
