Well, you mean it only refuses to boot when you insert the disk and old the 'c' key ? Does yaboot show up ? I guess not, is the iso HFS blessed or some other magic ? Also, i doubt it will work out of the box on old world, Robert, what is the kernel size, and could you include a miboot image of this if it is small enough ? Not sure the kernel or initrd fit on a floppy though. David have you tried booting it on the oldworld with bootx ? Friendly, Sven Luther
