I could not install boot loader, because formated my drive with ext3 and quik
doesnt support it. Should be a warning earlier in install process to use ext2
with quik.
Comments/Problems:
After the step to install without boot loader the system should ask to reboot
and not do it automatic.
Chrooted later from other system installed quik on ext3 and created quik.conf.
Updated my openfirmware settings with nvsetenv to boot from scsi-int.
Then booted into new debian sarge all configs went okay.
