Hello all!
We have tried to install a Debian distribution
on a powerpc G3 beige, without a macOS partition.
We have first boot with the 3.0 install
floppies : boot-hfs.img and root.img.
It has worked quite great until first
reboot...
Then we have manually made changes in OpenFirmware
with the patches and docs in netbsd.org.
It has worked and we could boot again to continue
installation.
Then during install we have choosen testing
upgrade.
All Worked great but quick2 has broken the
boot disk table and the powermac isn't able to boot
anymore!
I'd like to know if there's a way to create a boot
floppy with boot prompt so we could type something equivalent to "linux
root=/dev/hda2" from an intel Debian distribution (or Windows).
Thank you!
Raphaėl.
