Stupidest question of the year... Is option the one to the left of the
apple key ? The one I hold down with apple, o and f to get the
openfirmware prompt ?
I got my mac VERY second hand and don't have a manual for it :

Having an oldworld g3 means that I have to use quik. :(

Is there any way that I can boot OSX now ?
Secondly, I only seem able to use 1 mouse button. I've tried
ctrl-button, apple-button and option-button. What do I need to
simulate second and third buttons in X ?
Thanks,

This is an issue with the old beige g3's. It wasn't one of my
problems
label=Linux
read-only
The partition=6 bit in this is important. This should probably match
whatever partition you have (eg 6 for hda6, 3 for hda3)
- chroot /mnt as follows : chroot /mnt /bin/bash
- run quik
I hope that this finds its way into the archives and helps
someone. Thanks again to

hat I need Disk
Copy 6.3.3 or later to write the image to a floppy.
The problem I have here is that OSX doesn't seem to support my floppy
drive. It sure doesn't see disks when I insert them.
Is there any other way to write this image so that I can sort out the
firmware and boot Linu

What if I installed MacOSX behind Linux ? Would that help at all ?
