| 01:19.42 | ForrestF | never worked |
| 01:19.47 | ForrestF | this is for netinstall |
| 01:19.54 | benjy | eek |
| 01:20.45 | benjy | IC I know that the dhcp method didn't work for me awhile ago, but it worked this time. |
| 01:20.58 | ForrestF | what did you do? |
| 01:21.42 | benjy | burned cd 1 got it up and then got dhcp working once the base system was up. |
| 01:22.13 | ForrestF | thats what im going to do, |
| 01:22.19 | ForrestF | downloading cd 1 |
| 01:22.25 | benjy | After that I just apt-getted what I needed, course I was just turning up a webserver |
| 01:23.06 | ForrestF | ppcs make great webservers |

| 01:26.18 | ForrestF | i dont own anything past a p2 400mhz |

| 01:27.54 | benjy | I just got this g3 the other day |
| 01:28.07 | benjy | Iowa State was throwing it away |
| 01:28.22 | fenn | ForrestF: try assigning the IP manually instead of using dhcp |
| 01:28.31 | benjy | but I've never turned one up before\ |
| 01:28.31 | fenn | for example try 1921.68.0.2 |
| 01:28.38 | fenn | woops 192.168.0.2 |
| 01:28.55 | benjy | Oh are you behind a router? |
| 01:29.15 | benjy | I mean your own router? |
| 01:30.09 | benjy | I thought you were out right on the internet |
| 01:31.01 | benjy | ? |
| 01:32.50 | ForrestF | ya i am |
| 01:33.00 | ForrestF | strait cable to the modem |
| 01:33.19 | benjy | If you are behind the router you could definitely do that with a static |
| 01:33.31 | ForrestF | i know i dont own one, |
| 01:33.43 | benjy | oh shucks |
| 01:33.45 | benjy | sorry |
| 01:35.12 | benjy | If you wanted to be a little tricky you could put another maching on line, figure out what address it grabs and the default gateway. then shutdown and use that address to install from |
| 01:36.04 | fenn | got any extra network cards? |
| 01:36.08 | benjy | I theory it should work, if your ISP doesn't block a manuever like that |
| 01:36.21 | ForrestF | oh it does i tryed that |
| 01:36.42 | benjy | hmmph |
| 01:36.58 | fenn | thinking you could do NAT on the windows 3.11 box :) |
| 01:37.06 | ForrestF | omg |
| 01:37.46 | benjy | wow |
| 01:38.03 | ForrestF | thank god i have a cd burning |

| 01:38.49 | ForrestF | lol |
| 01:38.57 | ForrestF | i have one too |
| 01:39.10 | fenn | i guess the battery charge board goes bad often |
| 01:39.15 | fenn | mine seems to be busted |

| 02:00.51 | ForrestF | why does TAR care what time it is |
| 02:03.08 | fenn | lotsa unix programs depend on "date modified" and "date created" |
| 02:03.08 | ForrestF | Debian on PPC - think of it as a never-ending IQ test. |

| 18:31.08 | kattmat_ | do you know why i can't boot my debian install? :) |
| 18:32.01 | itom | kattmat_, I suggest you when you ask to specify something: model of apple hardware, installer, problem |
| 18:32.13 | kattmat_ | hehe. sorry. |
| 18:32.52 | kattmat_ | blue/white g3/450, two ide-drives. installed debian to beginning of ide-slave drive (HFS+ partition after it). 800KB bootstrap, 7GB /, 500MB swap |
| 18:32.56 | kattmat_ | installation went just fine |
| 18:33.09 | kattmat_ | rebooting, computer stalks with gray background |
| 18:33.21 | kattmat_ | after about 10 seconds, icon that marks that "no systemfolder was found" pops up |
| 18:33.30 | kattmat_ | then it boots mac os x (which is on my ide-master) |
| 18:33.40 | kattmat_ | and holding option down makes no difference what so ever. |
| 18:33.45 | kattmat_ | know what the problem can be? |

| 18:51.25 | itom | I'm not skilled to aid you with this specific problem |
| 18:51.52 | itom | I've installed Debian Sarge recently only in 3notebook with MacOsx |
| 18:52.10 | kattmat_ | and you met no errors what so ever? |
| 18:52.50 | itom | with this "NewWorld" machine no trouble (for booting) |
| 18:53.02 | itom | I've trouble with hardware like soundcard.. |
| 18:53.29 | kattmat_ | bluewhite g3 is newworld too |

| 19:00.14 | kattmat | anyone else around? |
| 19:00.16 | kattmat | i'm getting |
| 19:00.42 | kattmat | "LOAD-SIZE is too small" together with a "method <load> not found" error and some odd numbers when i try to load yaboot from OF. |
| 19:00.51 | itom | kattmat, so start macosx without chance to select linux? |
| 19:01.01 | kattmat | yup |
| 19:01.27 | itom | search information about OpenFirmware to load "by hand" linux |
| 19:01.38 | itom | that are installed in a partition with success |
| 19:02.08 | itom | Apple + O + F -> to press when start the system |
| 19:02.43 | kattmat | hm i know how to get into OF |
| 19:02.46 | kattmat | but not what to type |
| 19:03.00 | kattmat | i tried boot mydisk:9,\\yaboot |
| 19:03.05 | kattmat | and that's when i'm getting those errors |
| 19:03.22 | kattmat | boot mydisk:9,\\:tbxi doesn't work either |

| 19:07.26 | kattmat_ | okay. |
| 19:07.30 | kattmat_ | i tried boot hd:,\\:tbxi again |
| 19:07.35 | kattmat_ | and now it flashed some error text |
| 19:07.37 | kattmat_ | and then started booting osx |
| 19:07.54 | kattmat_ | like half a second, not a chance in hell you'll be able to read it. |

| 19:24.41 | kattmat_ | i don't know which drive is which anymore. |
| 19:24.42 | itom | kattmat_, hear me |
| 19:24.48 | itom | I suggest you to try with the mailing list see: http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer page; |
| 19:24.51 | itom | or try to install again and make attention to the step partition disc and "install yaboot"; |
| 19:24.56 | itom | at last I suggest you to boot with live cd and chroot your installed filesystem and edit your /etc/yaboot.conf and with # mkofboot -v install the loader again |
| 19:25.28 | kattmat_ | i can try. i'll be right back. |
| 19:25.30 | itom | now I'll go, I hope that you can resolv your problem. Bye :D |

| 19:59.59 | kattmat_ | do you think you can help me with my booting problems? |
| 20:00.07 | slushpupie | maybe |
| 20:00.13 | kattmat_ | well.\ |
| 20:00.18 | kattmat_ | that's about it. i can't boot. |
| 20:00.22 | kattmat_ | useful information: |
| 20:00.46 | kattmat_ | hdb (IDE 0, slave drive), first some apple partitions, then bootstrap, 7GB / and 500MB swap, then 70GB HFS+ |
| 20:00.51 | kattmat_ | debian installed smoothely |
| 20:01.14 | kattmat_ | when i reboot, it goes gray for 10 seconds, then the "i cant find a system folder" icon pops up, and then mac os x (hdc, IDE1-master) boots. |
| 20:01.22 | kattmat_ | no diff when i hold option |
| 20:01.50 | kattmat_ | if i go into OF and type boot hd:,\\yaboot i get "method <load> not found" and a "LOAD-SIZE is too small" error |
| 20:02.09 | slushpupie | what kind of mac? |
| 20:02.24 | kattmat_ | and if i type boot hd:,\\:tbxi it prints some odd texts (.bss, .data or something it ends with) and clears that after like 0.2seconds and boots osx |
| 20:02.30 | kattmat_ | blue/white g3, newworld. |
| 20:03.01 | slushpupie | sounds like yaboot got messed up |
| 20:03.08 | kattmat_ | indeed. |
| 20:03.13 | kattmat_ | so i tried booting into live from the cd |
| 20:03.18 | slushpupie | not real familiar with it myself |
| 20:03.19 | kattmat_ | and chrooting into my system |
| 20:03.22 | kattmat_ | and ybin -v |
| 20:03.27 | kattmat_ | but, still the same errors |
| 20:04.30 | kattmat_ | i have been searching the net and asking around for 2 days. no one even has any tips for me to try out.. |
| 20:06.35 | slushpupie | sorry... I dont think I know what to suggest either |
| 20:07.53 | kattmat_ | sigh.. |
| 20:08.03 | kattmat_ | i have been wanting to re-install linux for ages. |
