I tried the kernel 2.4 version we are using for new-powermac, to boot the current cvs-build installer on an OldWorld Mac using BootX.
The kernel does not recognize the SCSI devices, and acts the same way you described. cat /proc/partitions gives only information about the ide drive. In dmesg, I find SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00 request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root is not mounted request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root is not mounted I also tried it with the current 2.2.19 kernel and it was able to find the scsi drive. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------* -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
