Hello there, I have been struggling to boot Debian-PPC from a new 2TB Baracuda HDD with a Seagate GoFlex controller... FOR DAYS!
I am using a Powerbook G4 with OSX 10.3.4 The details: When I boot off a Live Ubuntu CD I am able to see and mount the external hard drive (/dev/sdb). The disk partitions look like... 1.Disk Map 2.Apple_Bootstrap 3.ext4 4.swap So I run the ybin on /dev/sdb2 (the apple_bootstrap partition) from the Ubuntu live bootable... Everything goes well, blessed with holy penguin pee, etc.... When I give the cmd+opt+o+f command on start up to load the Open Firmware interface problems happen. I try the 'dev / ls' command for the device tree. The external hard drive does not show up under any of the usb tree members. However, Open Firmware is able to "see" my 2GB thumb drive on the device tree just fine. When I boot to OSX I am able to see the external peachy with pdisk -L (it comes in as /dev/rdisk1 and all 4 partitions are present). Any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
