If I change the parameter boot-device to "scsi/sd@0:2", I always have
the error message : DEFAULT CATCH!, code=...
scsi/sd@0:0 might be preferable (the last 0 means "the first bootable
partition"), but will probably not help here.
That does not change anything, I have the same error message. :o(
If you can't get quik to work on your box, there seem to be two alternatives:
I believe that I will give up the idea of booting with Quik.
A. BootX (requires MacOS)
I will test BootX with kernel 2.6
B. miboot (will require a custom kernel with scsi compiled in). I have
setup a automated custom compiling make miboot floppies service, but
it is not finished yet. You give it a .config file and a root device
and you get miboot-floppy images and linux-image-*.deb:s out. If
you're interested I might go ahead and finish it.
Miboot allows bootting from the firmware (like quik) or from a diskette?
Regards.
