New: installing on g4
hi all,
partitioning of hdd works now, thanks to Ethan Benson...
hda1 Apple_Partition_Map
hda2 Apple_Bootstrap
hda3 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 swap
hda4 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 root
on first bootup (cd-rescueimage root=/dev/hda4) after installing basesystem
2.2r3 strange things happens like the older trials:
...
Freeing unused kernel memory: 168k init 28k swap
init: error in loading shared libraries: /lib/libc.so.6 undefined
symbol: <waste>
...system hangs...
second bootup: (cd-rescueimage root=/dev/hda4 - a little more working)
...
Starting internet superserver: inetd
debconf: package "base-config" is not fully installed
<repeated 6 or 7 times>
Init: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
...nothing more on this console
on console 2 rootlogin is possible...
command: mkofboot --boot /dev/hda2 -m /usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot --root
/dev/hda4 --partition 4
editing /etc/yaboot.conf
command: ybin
third bootup (starting from ofboot): same as first
fourth bootup (ofboot): same as first
sixth bootup (rescueimage root=/dev/hda4): same as first... and so on...
i wonder if something is wrong with installation cd, but copying and
extracting the base system and so on works well on installation...
-maybe there is something with hardware - i have no other operating system
for g4 yet...
-maybe kernel 2.2r3 makes problems with g4-400 pci...
-maybe i'm wrong...
any hints???
