Hi! I'm trying to install woody onto a G4 Cube using Ethan's current preferred method (drop the relevant files on the root of the relevant volume, craft a yaboot.conf, reboot into OF, etc) using the current version of boot-floppies. Here is the entirety of my yaboot.conf:
image=linux label=install initrd=root.bin initrd-size=8192 append="video=ofonly" The command I'm using from OF to boot is boot hd:,yaboot and then I type 'install' at the yaboot prompt. I get a 'Loading ramdisk' message (with something that follows immediately afterwards too quickly to read), the screen blanks, and then it comes back with a white OF screen with these words: ... ok copying OF device tree...done Calling quiesce ... DO-QUIESCE finishedbooting... and hangs. Here are the files that I've downloaded onto the root of the MacOS partition from ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-powerpc/current/powermac: drivers.tgz linux rescue.bin root.bin yaboot I know I'm doing something really simple and wrong here, but what? I've scanned the archives, and they have not brought me the joy for which I was hoping. Thanks as always for the help, Forrest Norvell -- . . . the self-reflecting image of a narcotized mind . . . ozymandias G desiderata [EMAIL PROTECTED] desperate, deathless (415)558-9064 http://www.aoaioxxysz.com/ ::AOAIOXXYSZ::
