I tried this one out on my iMac, but didn't get too far. The boot stops right after finding and mounting the ramdisk image; it says Warning: console cannot be opened. I noticed that the vmlinux you have on the site downloaded to my machine in text/plain format. Do you think that might corrupt it? The images on the debian ftp server are named *.bin so that programs download them in binary format. I didn't try it by netbooting, but instead by putting the files (vmlinux, yaboot, yaboot.conf, net-initrd.gz) on an hfs partition and then pointing OpenFirmware to them directly: boot hd:10,yaboot Will the net-initrd.gz work in this case? -- Debian GNU/Linux Operating System By the People, For the People Chris Tillman (a people instance) toff one at cox dot net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
