Hi Leo,
Not sure what you did but it works fine for me. I can start the disk and
it boots into a gui. Mouse and keyboard work with this configuration.
There is not a lot of documentation on this subject. There is however a
mailing list qemu-ppc, they might know much more.

Hi all,
I found a way to boot the recent Debian installer images and to boot the
created disk. In the example I created a 20G debian12.qcow2 file.
Install from the NETINST-1.iso:
qemu-system-ppc \
-L pc-bios \
-boot d \
-M mac99 \
-m 2048 \
-prom-env 'auto-boot?=true' \

The Pismo boots without any problems from the 2020-04-19 Debian SID CD.
It has Open Firmware (OF) 4.1.0f5; the Lombard has OF 1.0f1. I'm not
sure what the minimum OF version is, but 1.0f1 appears to be too old, at

after the first installation of debian stable powerpc.

RAM. it's an oldworld system with an 2.0.1 firmware.

I'm still stuck with Debian CD's not booting on my b&w G3 while Suse
boots nicely. Is it possible to extract the difference between these
CD's? Could anybody help me to extract this infos?

Well,
It finally all works. Thanks to Chris and others who mailed me
suggestions. The only thing not working is the timeout so that it
boots automagically after x seconds, but I don't care about that right
now.

I will post new problem in a separate thread.

As you can see from this, the Linux partition now comes before any
apple partitions on the disk. Booting debian, mounting the disk and
running quik no longer produces the warning about a previous p

Hi all,
I followed some of the advice that I received here about moving the
partition I was trying to boot with quik to in front of the macosX
partition. This still failed.
I have now abandoned the idea of dual booting for the moment and am
just trying to boot debian on this beast.

Okay, fixed the partition type, then ran 'ybin -C /target/etc/yaboot.conf -m
/target/etc/ofboot.b', which returned several 'yaboot.conf: line too long' (or
something like that) errors; then, when I try to do the 'boot hd:9' bit, I get:

Okay... so I've (supposedly) gotten Debian installed on my iBook, and did the
voodoo with the bootstrap partition (mkofboot --boot /dev/hda9 -m
/target/etc/ofboot.b --root /dev/hda11 --partition 11). When I try to do "boot
hd:9" or "boot hd:9, yaboot", though, I get this message:

Hi,
I got a Powerbook G3 Lombard, and made a hack.
I installed the bootloader from LinuxPPC, and booted the instalation, since I
couldnt with the debian disks because powerbook doesnt have floppy. Instead of
installing LinuxPPC, I opened a terminal and:
1) partitioned
2) Formatted
3) uncompress
