| 21:16.44 | cizra | Does yaboot require a separate partition? |
| 21:16.46 | simonrvn | bit quiet here since one of the main ppc cpu manuf./distributors went inhel, but we're still here. apple isn't the only big corporate foo out there |
| 21:16.49 | simonrvn | yeh |
| 21:16.51 | cizra | Or does it perhaps require a certain type of FS? |
| 21:16.54 | simonrvn | bootstrap partition |
| 21:17.05 | simonrvn | ybin sets it up for you once it's created |
| 21:17.33 | cizra | Hrm. Well, I can't modify the partitions, because I don't know the admin password. |
| 21:17.43 | simonrvn | in mac-fdisk, just press b to make the part., then once done you run ybin to set it up with yaboot's conf |
| 21:17.48 | cizra | There is no mac-fdisk |
| 21:17.52 | cizra | There is the regular fdisk |
| 21:17.55 | simonrvn | @i forgot root's password |
| 21:17.55 | ravenbird | on OldWorld: 'boot Linux single init=/bin/sh' at the OF prompt (might need to set auto-boot? false with nvsetenv if using quik), or input ' single init=/bin/sh' into BootX's text box. NewWorld: put ' single init=/bin/sh' after 'linux'. that should get you to single user mode. then 'mount -o remount,rw /' then 'passwd root' |
| 21:18.14 | cizra | That's not Linux. That's Mac OS X |
| 21:18.21 | simonrvn | oh. dunno then |
| 21:18.45 | simonrvn | probably similar; ecept you need to do command-v to boot in "verbose" mode |
| 21:18.49 | simonrvn | ex* |
| 21:19.03 | cizra | Do I have to hold it during boot? |
| 21:19.08 | simonrvn | i think you can do command-s to boot in ingle user mode |
| 21:19.28 | simonrvn | until the screen goes black and displays the os x/netbsd screens |
| 21:19.30 | cizra | oh, gotta try |
| 21:20.44 | cizra | I guess it didn't work. |
| 21:20.51 | cizra | Was command the equivalent of PC Alt? |
| 21:21.07 | simonrvn | yes |
| 21:21.13 | cizra | Then it didn't work. |
| 21:21.24 | simonrvn | equivalent on the keyboard placement |
| 21:21.38 | simonrvn | gar, nm mind the grammar there hehe |
| 21:24.12 | cizra | Anyway, I can't use yaboot because I can't do a bootstrap partition; I can't boot directly from the CD (for some obscure reason). What else might be done? |
| 21:26.01 | simonrvn | floppy boot (if you have one), or netboot |
| 21:26.06 | cizra | There should be dd. Could I perhaps dd some disk image into the hard disk, directly? It'd be pretty destructive, though. |
| 21:26.09 | cizra | No floppies. |
| 21:26.12 | cizra | Netboot? Hmmm... |
| 21:26.21 | cizra | Can Mac do this? I've never tried setting it up. |
| 21:26.22 | simonrvn | you can also boot from the os x partition |
| 21:26.37 | simonrvn | the "hd-media" way |
| 21:26.53 | simonrvn | they're all covered in the install guide |

| 21:32.10 | cizra | Arrh. This text is confusing. |
| 21:33.11 | cizra | How will my Mac know that it should boot from network? |
| 21:33.50 | simonrvn | set up the bootp stuff; it'll ask at the address you set for boot info |
| 21:34.38 | cizra | bootp? DHCP was recommended by the guide. |
| 21:34.49 | simonrvn | oh, dhcp can handle it too. do that then (better protocol) |
| 21:34.57 | cizra | OK |
| 21:35.43 | cizra | Will try all that tomorrow. Good night. |
| 21:36.10 | simonrvn | g'night, good luck |
