Re: Debian MacOldWorld installation



Are you sure your CD-R burned cleanly? Sometimes the old Mac SCSI CD-rom drives are finicky about which brand of CD-R they will read. Can you read the CD-R with the same drive under Mac-OS?

Just a thought...

Also, if you can't get the miboot floppies to work, you might try using BootX and MacOS.

Well I tried  with another  harddrive, now this step  is ok.
But I have another error :p :
isofs_read_super_block break failed
hfs_fs unable to read superblock .
Well must I partition my disks before to launch miboot ?
My harddrives are still with hfs partitions.
Sincerely

Jerome
