I have recently received a lot of 6 new IBM RS6000/B50 (model 7046) I wish to
utilize as dns servers (as couples) in my colocations.
I remember, in "sarge" times i was able to install debian on another machine
identical to these, with grat difficulty and burning a whole bunch of

thank you

Every time the server reboots I have to run this command.

If I don't CUPS replies printer not connected.
Using as a windows printer via Samba.
The server operates great otherwise.
Could someone explain what I'm doing wrong?

This is probably a dumb question, but one I thought would be best
answered here. I have finally managed to get an install started on my

Thank you for the reply about the H50 vs the F50. Its good to have
confirmation; I had verified with the vendor that the parts are
interchangeabe and figured it would work.
I'm a little confused on the boot loader. I got interested in using the

Hi Ezra,
A while ago I had some problems installing Debian Sarge on exactly the
same type of RS6000. I solved it eventually in a different way and
posted the howto on www.ifh.ee.ethz.ch/~rharbers/rs6000/rs6000.html.
Hope it works for you, too.

Well, in the sarge CD1 there is an install directory with yaboot in it.

I recently installed Debian testing on a IBM RS6000 44p-170.
I booted from network. With the help of some docs on the web
this worked well.
The problem: debian-installer failed to make the system bootable from

The solution is simple: create a small (I used 7 MB) partition with type

Hi all,
The way I installed the F50 was quite a hack so I
don't think you should document this.
My humble opinion on the installation process as I
don't see the whole picture on other h/w.
The initiative is to create a CD installer so most of
the needed data should be there.

Hi Sven,
Eventually successfull installation of Sarge on the

After few tries I found that auto-boot can be done
using a PReP partition.

Hi everyone,
Good morning, Im try to install Debian onto a RS6000 7044-170, but in many
manuals (for example
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/pdf/IBM7248-HOWTO.pdf),
I have to update the microcode or firmware, because I cant boot the computer
with the debian images
