Hi, Christoph Ewering writes:I was running "testing" on my beige G3 with kernel 2.6.6. I used a little Partition with MacOS 9.1 on it to boot with BootX into Linux.[...]At the next reboot my beige G3 could not start into linux :-(Does it still boot into the Mac OS on your hard disk? Can you boot from a Mac OS CD? Have you tried zapping the PRAM?
No, I can not boot any more into my MacOS-Partition. The partition is not mounted when I boot from a MacOS CD. But when I put the disk into an firewire-case I can mount this partition under MacOS X. But I can not mount the linux-partitions(installed Ext3fs for MacOS). I tried to renew the driver with Apples Drive-Setup but this does not change anything. I can boot from CD.
Any other hints? BTW. I thought that this error was fixed with quik 2.0 :-(AFAIK a long time ago there was a special bootblock-file for beige G3s. I think i can put this onto the disk with dd from MacOS X. But I do not know how.
Bye, Christoph
