Hi all, I'm trying to install woody on a beige g3, 266 some 256 mb and a 4 gig ide hard. I start the process via floppy, partition the hard, install the base file, however when is time to make "system bootable" it gives me this error:
"THE REQUIRED ACTION CANNOT BE PERFORMED BECAUSE THE ROOT PARTITION MUST BE ON THE FIRST DISK" ... well I'm lost, I have the 4 gig ide with the following partitions: /dev/hdd1 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 root [EMAIL PROTECTED] (3.8G) /dev/hdd2 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 swap [EMAIL PROTECTED] (256.0M) /dev/hdd3 Apple_partition_map Apple [EMAIL PROTECTED] (31.5K) /dev/hdd4 Apple_Free Extra [EMAIL PROTECTED] (0.5k) ... ok, I'm confused what would be the "first disk" if not hdd1? (I installed two years ago woody in a similar machine, and I remember that the only time I succeded was when I replaced the IDE hard drive with a SCSI ... but now I want to work around and use the just the IDE ... if possible ... and I want just debian on this machine no mixed use with appleos). So, I need help from you guys out there that are much smarter than me; please give me a hint/guide me on what to do.
