I've been trying to boot slink on a Mac II cx and
am not having much luck.
I start Penguin using the Penguin Prefs with the
following settings:
all diagnostic reports
enabled
kernel: linux
Ram Disk: root.bin
Don't Disable Video Card
VBLS
Color by Penguin
Command Line: root-dev/ram
MAC5380=4,2 video=font: VGA8X
Penguin and all of the required install files are
located in a top level folder (debian) on a 80 Mb Mac partion of a Connor 1.2 Gb drive. The balance of the drive is
allocated to a large AUX root partition and an approx 50 Mb. AUX swap
partition.
The command line is the default provided by
Penguin. I have tried variations, but all with the same result:
Penguin goes through all the system diagnostics,
reports "Booting Linux... Please fasten seatbelts" ejects floppy disk and CD ROM and begins detecting
hardware.
Everything seems to go well until it gets to the
SCSI hard drives.
I have two drives installed: an Apple Quantum
80 Mb and a Connor 1.2 Gb. Can boot either.
Often, the Linux booter does not detect the Connor
drive. But even when it does, the end result is the same. Here's the diagnostic output from the booter starting with the SCSI
detection:
...

scsi0: no currently connected command
scsi0: issue_queue

scsi0: warning: scsi command probably completed

and there it hangs.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks!
