| 15:48.36 | terite | There are people here! |
| 15:50.30 | pahartik | deasy: Very good |
| 15:51.20 | terite | I'm trying to install Debian on an ol' PowerPC G4. I burned a cd (debian-6.0.7-powerpc-netinst.iso), but when I try to boot from it using the option key, the cd is ejected and no options are shown |
| 15:51.35 | terite | I'm sorry that this isn't even a debian question, yet |
| 15:53.26 | pahartik | terite: Does that drive read that specific instance of media at all? |
| 15:53.57 | terite | Drive is listed as dvd capable, so I hope so |
| 15:54.29 | terite | I'll troubleshoot more, I was just hoping for some quick possible gotchas |
| 15:54.36 | pahartik | terite: Can you boot system up and mount it? |
| 15:54.55 | terite | No |
| 15:56.10 | terite | Hard drive might be gone. Just got 5 of another office's old machines |
| 15:56.31 | terite | gone as in no-longer working |
| 15:57.11 | pahartik | terite: Are you used to boot from network? |
| 15:57.35 | terite | I am not |
| 15:59.46 | deasy | i think put xorg.conf inside /etc/X11/ instead of /etc |
| 15:59.49 | pahartik | terite: Harddisk can be easily checked by using "IEEE-1394 target mode" |
| 15:59.56 | deasy | proper method |
| 16:32.48 | terite | Looks like it was just a poorly burned CD :( |

| 21:39.32 | pahartik | terite: Did you get better results with another media? |
| 21:41.49 | terite | pahartik: Yes. 3/5 machines running debian so far |
| 21:42.44 | terite | Things are looking good, thanks! |
