PMac4400 with G3 upgradecard
Hi, My problem is that when I try to install mandrake(using bootx to boot) everything else installs just fine, but then it tries to install bootstrap( a part of yaboot?) and it fails to do it. It didn't even give a hint what was the problem(no error explanation(or even error type)). So any hints how to proceed? Yours. Mikko Västi

Something like No room to make 1MB bootstrap. Are you starting with Apple_Free space on the drive? The installer does not have the capability of resizing MacOS partitions. More recent updates are a little more forgiving and let you past this initial bootstrap error with a warning that you will need to create one. Also I now check for OldWorld machines and forgoe the bootstrap setup in that case. I did not have access to an OldWorld machine for testing when the Beta1 ISO's were released.

Hi Sylvain - I was able to get MOL working w/o much of a problem. I might be able to help you a little bit, but your best bet is to post to the Mac-on-Linux mailing list - see the homepage for details.
