| Hi, I'm happy to announce EMILE, my bootloader for Macintosh m68k, is now able to create bootable CD-ROM. I've juste created an install CD-ROM for sarge. But as it contains Apple copyrighted materials (the AppleDriver), it cannot be distributed widely. It's only a first step, I'm working on writing a "dummy" AppleDriver of my own (a real AppleDriver is not needed for Linux... I guess) For the moment, EMILE must extract an AppleDriver from a MacOS bootable CDROM. But if you want to try it, you can download it from (MD5: a4819b5f8fffabede499ddf52aa66728) (if you want to create your own, take packages/binaries from http://emile.sf.net/SNAPSHOT and mail me to know how) And Remember: 1- To be able to boot from a CD-ROM, the macintosh must have an Apple CD-ROM drive, not a pioneer, yamaha or other... only Apple. 2- All Apple drives I know are not able to manage CD-RW disk, so use a CD-R disk (at your own risks. Personally I burnt 22 CD-R to make this development and thus gave a lot of money to music artists: because of french tax on CD-R, a CD-R costs 0,70 euros... hey, SACEM, I'm an artist too !) 3- after your test, detroy the CD because it contains Apple copyrighted materials ;-) (Hey, Steve, could we use your materials for our debian bootable CD ?) To speak about another subject, m68k buildd, if someone thinks qemu can be faster than aranym, I can work on the port of qemu to 68020... Peace & Love ;-) Laurent ---------------------- Laurent Vivier ---------------------- "Imagination is more important than knowledge." |
