Subject: PowerPC Debian install on IBM 43P boot problems...
Dear all,
I`m trying to revive an old IBM 43P for a customer into using it with
Debian 3.0 (that`s the only version I was able to get bootable floppy images).
After the successful partionning and installation of the base OS, during
boot, it is stuck displaying infinite messages about the SCSI Controller 0,
trying to reset it, and never ends.
Has anyone been successful in such an installation on an old IBM 43P?
Thanks,
