Hi Ennio, here my tabel from mac-fdisk, the relevant parts: /dev/hda9 Apple_Free Extra 1954 @ 1544 (977.0k) Free space /dev/hda10 Apple_HFS Ohne Titel 2 1942918 @ 13808653 (948.7M) HFS /dev/hda11 Apple_HFS Ohne Titel 3 5624908 @ 15751571 ( 2.7G) HFS /dev/hda12 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 public 56763681 @ 21376479 ( 27.1G) Linux native /dev/hda13 Apple_Bootstrap untitled 1954 @ 3498 (977.0k) NewWorld bootblock /dev/hda14 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 untitled 13103516 @ 5452 ( 6.2G) Linux native /dev/hda15 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 swap 699685 @ 13108968 (341.6M) Linux swap
As you can see there is an old Bootstrap in hda9 and then in hda10/hda11 macos9.1/macosx10.0.4 and AFTER that comes linux hda12 /home/public access for all users hda13 the bootstrap (yaboot...) hda14 / (root) hda15 swap I remember something that mac9 can only access up to 15 Partition. Not shure about that... Maybe you can re-number the partitions (read man mac-fdisk or man parted) Norbert > > In the meantime, could you please tell me how you partitioned the HD? > ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > My MacOS 9.1 could only make 8 partitions, but I made 4 (First 70 GB > reserved to linux, 2nd (HFS+) for MacOs9, 3rd (HFS) Xchange part., 4th > (HFS+) for MacOSX (which, however, wouldn't install from OS9.1!).
