Previously: setup BootX for beige G3 Hi List
My Problem: I cannot proceed installing r3.0 (after having successfully installed the base system) because the system seems to have a problem with my USB devices. My configuration: MT Beige G3 333, 256MB, ATI64 PCI OrangeMicro FireWire+USB Utrawide SCSI (sym53c8xx) Voodoo2 3dfx base system on hda7, swap on hda8 Booting with bootX122, kernel vmlinux, /dev/hda7, force video settings, no video driver Symptoms: A) USB keyboard and mouse unplugged Using ADB keyboard and mouse -> I get to the screen: Congratulation, you have successfully ... -> I cannot hit OK (return). ADB Keyboard seems to be ignored although the boot messages had some entries showing it did care about it. B) ADB keyboard and mouse unplugged Using USB keyboard and mouse -> kernel panic hub.c USB new device connected, on bus 1/1, assigned device number 2 usb.c: USB new device connected, assigned device number 2 NIP: C0010008 XER: 20000100 LR:C0010100 REGS: C02f7cf0 TRAP: 0700 MSR: 00089032 [EE, IR, DR, ME] TASK= c02f6000[1] 'init' mm->pdg c0240000 last syscall: 125 Last math c02f6000 GPR00: xxxxxxxx ...

My question: What to I have to do to be able to use Debian 3.0 on my Mac, using my USB devices as the space bar of my ADB kb is dead? Thanks a lot in advance for your valuable help. Cheers Fred
