This was the chroot /etc/quik.conf, right? > 5. ofpath /dev/sda gave me /bandit/gc/53c93/[EMAIL PROTECTED]: > 6 nvsetenv boot-device /bandit/gc/53c93/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 This seems not unreasonable; I have had good luck with quik using the OF aliases also, such as scsi/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 or scsi-int/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 Try also nvsetenv boot-file Linux <-- the name of the label in quik.conf or nvsetenv boot-file scsi/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0/boot/vmlinux-2.2.19 Since you don't have any video, maybe quik is actually loading but the default image isn't working, and you can't see it. Also, you can see what OF is doing if you hook up another computer to the modem port and start a ZTerm or similar comm program at 38400 8,N,1. > 7. quik -f -v seems to be ok Also, what partition does it install to? Try using that number instead of 0 after the colon, e.g. scsi/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:5 -- *------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 | *----------------------------------------------------------------*
