It was complaining a lot about missing group ID when it was creating
devices in /dev/. Later I found out that /etc/group is not there.
Something didn't work as expected.

Have you been using the integrated LILO? I have pretty exact information
about booting linux in the doc/documentation.txt.

no. The ARAnyM MMU was debugged by Andreas on PPC Mac.
BTW, I tried installing Debian Woody, it workd perfectly but now it
freezes during boot at
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Adding Swap: 137796k swap-space (priority -1)
ttyS0 at 0xfffffa01: MFP
^^^ this is the last message, then it freezes
I am wondering if there is something wrong with MFP or if it's some
other problem.
