I have bee trying to create a bootable cd for powerpc/mac, using this
webpage as a reference http://www.soziologie.ch/users/steinlin/d-i/#bootcd.
So far I have been unsuccessful.
-----------------------------------------------
Here's my yaboot.conf file
timeout=0
default=Linux
message=/boot/yaboot/msg
device=cd:
image=/boot/kernels/264dario/bzImage
label=Linux
initrd=/boot/stages/stage1.gz
read-only
--------------------------------------------------
Here's my ofboot.b
<CHRP-BOOT>
<COMPATIBLE>
MacRISC MacRISC2 MacRISC3 MacRISC4
</COMPATIBLE>
<DESCRIPTION>
EzBackup sa boot loader
</DESCRIPTION>
<BOOT-SCRIPT>
" screen" output
load-base release-load-area
boot cd:,\boot\yaboot\yaboot
</BOOT-SCRIPT>
</CHRP-BOOT>
------------------------------------------------
Here's my mkisofs command, from a script
mkisofs -o $ROOTDIR/../ezbsa-$EZBSAVER.iso \
-R -J -V "$VOLID" \
-x ./boot/scripts \
-x ./boot/stages/addsplash \
-x ./boot/stages/build \
-x ./boot/stages/extract \
-hide-rr-moved \
-v -d -N \
-hfs \
--hfs-bless $ROOTDIR/yaboot/ \
-map $ROOTDIR/yaboot/hfs.map \
-A "$APPID" .
Thanks in advance.
