04:31.51Grackle`Hi, I just did a debian net install on a beige g3, I'm using bootx... I'm quite certain that the root partition is on hda3 (I tried hda1 and hda2 and hda4 to be sure), and I checked it again using the ramdisk image.. It can't boot, it always stops because it can't find the root partition. I'm using the net install vmlinux kernel, should I be doing something differently?
05:00.21Grackle`Gnargh.

18:56.51AndrewLeegnusosa: otherwise, you might reinstall osx later. :p
18:57.09gnusosai will have to install it now to have MOL
