Yes, I just need some time. I have to write an Apple driver to put on the CDROM before to not be under Apple copyright (it's not acceptable for a Debian CD, I think). EMILE has been designed to boot PowerPC Macintosh (I've several Nubus powermac, and PCI one not bootable from disk, i.e. first generation powerbook G3). > -even both systems on a same cdrom-... Please do that !] I think it's the easy part of the task... > Mac OS 7.5.3 can't even partition/format that disk !!! Yes, to partition a non-apple disk you need to use patched tools. But if you don't want MacOs, you can partition it with fdisk, but as fdisk doesn't manage APPLE_DRIVER partition, you will not be able to boot from it. At the moment, I'm working on an EMILE APPLE_DRIVER (EMILE_DRIVER ? ;-) ) you will be able to add on this disk to make it bootable (So create an empty partition of 64 kB to put it late). > Installation is much faster than a similar > debian (d-i cdrom). > > Regards > > Eugen Paiuc Thank you to use EMILE and for your comments.
