I have exactly your setup right here :P Poke around on nubus-pmac.sf.net and
mail me if you have any questions.
The big problem is that PCMCIA is not supported. With no USB or built in
ethernet, the laptop is pretty much useless unless you like transfering
all your files via floppy (and i don't ev
Well, my main concen is with the support for mac serial ports in linux. I
can't even get the mac to send a file to itself reliably, the flow control
doesn't seem to work so the file is full of holes and i get input overrun
errors.

Well, because there is no pcmcia support i'd like to use a direct ppp link
over a nulmodem to the desktop in lieu of ethernet. However, I can't get the
darn thing to work; it seems the mac won't use flow control. If that much
would work, I think it's possible to get a low speed (56k maybe) connecti
I just started from the example file in /usr/doc/frambuffers_dir... and changed
the color depth. I believe that you must specify "default" as the mode. I
can't send you my config without coping it by hand, unless someone could write
PCMCIA drivers or make PPP work :)

I got the default framebuffer server included with debian to run by changing
the default color depth. If I recall correctly I had to turn it up to 16 or
more.

There should be no ' in CDs. Damn...I wish people would get their grammar
straight.
I'm tring to install debian on my laptop here, but I don't have a floppy
drive :/ I don't have linux working yet, I still have to get mac os on there
so i can boot it. I have a disk image I need to mount, only the disk copy that
comes with mac os 8.0 is too damn stupid to let me mount it because th

Hope that helps

Hrm...is there a disk in the drive? ;) It could be a bad disk, so try
some others that you know to work. I'm also not sure what crazy things
macs might do with cdroms, so maybe someone with a little more macknowledge
could say something on this. Besides that, the line in fstab might be wrong,

[sigh] nope :( The netbsd powerpc port seems very well supported and
developed, but there is no support for macs without open freeware
(like nubus machines). Shoot.
Does anyone have any experience with nubus?

/dev/cdrom is not an accual device, it's just a symbolic link to the real
device. If you have an IDE cdrom, the correct decive is /dev/hda, /dev/hdb,
/dev/hdc, or /dev/hdd for the primary master, primary slave, seccondary
master, sec. slave...you get the idea :) If it's scsi, link to /dev/sd?.

I have poked around on nubus-pmac.sf.net and found only a few refrences
to debian. I'm still wondering if debian will support things like pcmcia
on nubus macs (specificly a pb1400), or is there no such thing as usefull
linux on an old mac? :(
I really, really need some sort of unix flavored system
I have found some messages in the ML archives about hacking debian
onto a PB 1400, but every time I find a link to the hack it's broken :(
Does anyone know if Debian can be put on to a nubus mac? I'm going to
die if I don't have a command line soon :) ...
