Otherwise, reset to the default setting and try again (my Performa 5400 boots nicely with quik and I only need to set the boot-device parameter).
For Quik, I use a first.b-g3, the configuration of Quik is : root=/dev/sda2 timeout=20 image=/boot/vmlinux label=Linux read-only When, I run quik -v, I have : # quik -v Second-stage loader is on /dev/sda2 Conffile is /etc/quik.conf Config file is on partition 2 Writing first-stage QUIK boot block to /dev/sda2 Making /dev/sda2 bootable (map entry 2) Writing block table to boot block on /dev/sda2 It is OK ? When I use BootX for booting to Linux, I have in Open Firmware : - boot-device /AAPL,ROM - boot-file - load-base 600000 Which are the parameters which you have in Open Firmware ?If I change the parameter boot-device to "scsi/sd@0:2", I always have the error message : DEFAULT CATCH!, code=...
