Good question, Amos.
You should begin with listing the files:
ls -al /mnt2
What do you get? Usually there are links vmlinux and initrd.img
pointing at vmlinux-2.6.x.x.x and initrd.img-2.6.x.x.x, respectively.
They should come from a package called linux-image-2.6 or something
similar. You can se

Thanks for the continued support. I continued through the

Hmm... looks like /dev/sda does not exist, yet. But somewhere under

You could just try to let the installation process continue a bit
further. When it's about to start the partitioning, the sd

Thanks much for your response. I followed your directions, but after

I also made attempts with "hfs" and "sda5", but received the s
Hi Amos,
The one thing you probably forgot, was to copy the vmlinux and
initrd.img images from /boot to Mac OS 'Linux Kernels' folder. Then
you will have to direct BootX to use them, as you did with the images
from the install CD.
Now you must try to re-start the installation and then suspend it

I've attempted to scour the internet for information on where to go
from here, but seem to be coming up empty handed. Any advice that I
can get on where to go from here would be much appreciated.

I CAN mount /dev/hdb2 on /target.
What am I missing? Are there any other kernel
parameters I should add ?
