I searched the lists and it said that to install 9.1 on an eMac I should try:
installgui-benh text
That doesn't work/exist.
So I try: install-gui-benh text which leaves me with a black screen after some text scrolls quickly by.
So what's the secret to installing on an eMac?
Don't know for sure this will work but try adding
video=ofonly
to your boot arguments
Good call, Stew! If I use:
install-gui-benh text video=ofonly
I can get into the installation process.
But I have a (prolly silly) question.
How do I create unallocated space on the eMac, which will not let me boot into OS 9 to use Apple's Disk Utility?
When I get it running, I'll send a full report/howto on what I did.
Thanks, Jeff
