Machine: Apple Blue & White G3 Processor: 400 MHz Memory: 384MB (1x128MB + 1x256MB) Root Device: System contains 2 SCSI drives: /dev/sda is an IBM DDRS-39130D (9GB SCSI); /dev/sdb is a Seagate ST39140W (9GB SCSI). Both are connected to the Apple-shipped Adaptec SCSI card. I chose the IBM as the root device.

The first issue was that the onboard network card was not detected and I had to choose the BMAC driver from the list myself. Although I realize that not all cards will be autodetected, it seems like this one should be since it was the standard onboard card for the G3 series (at least the blue & whites). The installer completed succesfully, but unfortunately wouldn't reboot into Debian. Since this machine doesn't have a serial port I could not capture the output of the boot process in a serial console, so I had to take a picture and type it all out (and I could only get the last screen). From the combination of this output and the lspci, it seems that the problem is related to the firewire module. It's possible that there are minor typos in this since I had to type it by hand, so if you need something verified just ask - it's infinitely reproducable: tsdev: loaded successfully evbug: blacklisted evdev: already loaded input [success] isapnp isapnp [success] net net [success] pci ignoring pci display device on 00:10.0 PCI: Enabling device 0000:01:00.0 (0014 -> 0016) pcilynx0: allocated PCL memory 4096 Bytes @ 0xd7f01000 pcilynx0: allocated interrupt 21 pcilynx0: remapped memory spaces reg 0xda1e6000, rom 0xda268000, ram 0xda246000, aux 0xda257000 Machine check in kernel mode.
