To boot the installer use BootX (from the Macos) and then during the install select to install quik as your boot loader if you want a pure Debian box. If you wipe the MacOS during the install (partitioning stage) then you have no way back should quik fail. The safest way is to leave a small MacOS partition to be able to use BootX when necessary and install quik as your bootloader. To use BootX you need to copy the kernel files created during the install to the Mac side before you reboot into your newly installed system. It is a while since I've done this so checkout the ports page at debian.org and: http://penguinppc.org/mac/ Regards Clive -- www.clivemenzies.co.uk ... ...strategies for business -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
