Is something supposed to be located in
/dev/ram?
I tried that and it still didn't work
Is that where my kernel is supposed to be located
somehow?
does /dev/ram map to something equivalent on MAC
like the RAMDISK or something?
(I edited lilo.conf manually, when I tried to use
the control panel it told me "Mklinux - a system error
occured")

It was kinda

in any event I got the

VFS Cannot open root

Please appand a
correct "root=" boot option
kernel panic VFS:
Unable to mount root fs on 08:15
on a 7100/80 what is
the correct root= option and how do I set it?
Open lilo.conf on the Mac side - you can use Control Panels/MkLinux and
select Custom
set rootdev=/dev/ram
And it should boot you into the installation screen you can then install
woody from the net.
Good luck
