ArchPOWER

ArchPOWER is a port of Arch Linux to PowerPC (and others) with the base packages and a few exciting extras (like ArcticFox!). It’s a good choice for customisability and compatibility due to the systemd/glibc combo.

Downloads

Download the SD files, then your choice of Flashable Image, Partition Image or Tarball. The torrent cotains everything, so be sure to deselect undesired files in your torrent client before starting the download.

The linux-wiiu project has a large server seeding these images, so please use torrent if you can.

The dates are not particularly relevant here, since any ArchPOWER can update itself from the internet. Once you have downloaded your image, proceed with the Install guide.
