Are you using the pmac root.bin? I'm guess
Not having researched the mailiing lists, I thought I'd just post a question
about Mac On Linux. As in, I'm running a 2.4-pre8ben0 kernel, and when I
issue the make-kpkg modules_image command, it fails and gives me the message
"Module /usr/src/modules/mol failed."
What can I do to correct this?
I'm trying to install Debian on a G4 using the current linux and
root.bin from Woody (3.07-2001-07-11). I've placed these files on my Mac
harddisk, along with yaboot 1.2.3.
Booting gets stuck, with these kernel messages:

you could actually try some bootfloppies or whatever to boot
and then to print the partition table.
