if you'd like, you can use the image i've been working on as a starting point. it's gpld and all the contents are gpld (you'd probably change the text in the "Install Linux" so it doesn't talk about turbolinux and remove the manual/ directory :). the image is bzip2'd. it's 13M. unzip the image (it's 650M unzipped). don't mount the image under macos. it will either crash or just "unbless" the system folder so it won't be bootable. loop-mount it under linux. hfsfs will automatically find the right partition, fortunately. hfsutils may also work. copy files to it (in particular, copy a current vmlinux over the three copies on the disk and copy your ramdisk over both the ramdisk.image.gz files on the disk). unmount and cdrecord the image directly to a cd. voila, bootable on every mac i've tried and includes all the macfiles you'd need. here it is: http://www1.turbolinux.com/~brad/software/image.bz2 Brad [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.turbolinux.com/~brad/
