boot - powermac 7300 : in english now... sorry.
I'm trying to install debian in a Power Mac 7300.
I don't have any experience in macs...
I do have some experience in debian (x86).
I've downloaded the first cd of the powermac cd set
and the boot and root discs. I want to install the base
system with this cd and the other packages by http
or ftp (with apt-get, dpkg, etc...)
I've had two problems:
- fdisk don't recognize the correct hd size, but
if I calc and give the correct size, it works fine,
I only want to know if the fdisk was suposed to
do this job??
- the base system instalation occours normaly, but
I don't know how to create a boot disk and I didn't
have success in booting from the hard disk. How to
boot the system?
Thank you.
