Tomas, Perhaps you could send me an email address that wouldn't bounce. I would be happy to assist where I can without laboring the list.

How does one mount it? Does an ICON appear on the desktop on an insert to the drive? I am not familair with the Zip in the Mac, but you could use a command such as this: # mount /dev/hdc4 /mnt/cdrom (from root) If the Zip drive is formatted for Mac or DOS you will have to put in a -t HFS or -t VFAT into the mount command.

Re: Dual PowerBooks - client/server
Tomas Taylor wrote: Hello, I was not clear at all. I am overwriting MacOS 8.6 with Linux 9.1 on the G3. I installed it and it works! Thanks alot. Using a "crossover" cable, I had my G3 and G4 in an Ethernet: with the G3 as the server and the G4 as the client. So now I want to setup a new Ethernet with the G4 as the server and the G3 as a client. If anyone can give me hints on configuring Ethernet I would appreciate it. thanks, tomas Perhaps I am missing something, but there is no difference (in my mind) between client and server when it gets down to the ethernet and IP layers. They are just networking protocols, once set up to communicate, they will convey the client/server application traffic. So in my mind, if you had the ethernet working with a crossover cable, and the two machines were in the same IP subnet (ie. 192.168.1.1/24 & 192.168.1.2/24) then it is only a matter of running server type applications on your G4 (like a web server), and a client on the G3 (like Mozilla).

Auto reboot of iMac?
Hello All, I have an old-ish (about 3 years old) Blue iMac, I have Linux running on now.

linux on powerbook
hi there! i'm running linux on my ibook (500MHz/CD) for about a year now. i'd love to buy a new powerbook 12" some day, but not without being able to run linux on it, too. in some stores i find a comment on some powerbooks "last one booting with OS9". what changed with the newer ones? has anyone experiences installing and running linux (i prefer debian) on that hardware? how's about built-in components like sound, airport, bluetooth, external-monitor, .. probably we'll have to wait for knoppix_ppc. :o) thanks for feedback!
Other Kernels (than those included in 9.1)?
All, I am wondering if there are "other" kernels out there that would solve some of the problems I am having with 9.1. I have tried both 2.4.21-0.13mdk and 2.4.20-benh-9mdk on my G3 (Pismo) power book, and both have problems. The standard kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk exhibits: 1. Powerbook locks up upon wake up. I did run the apm_emu, but this doesn't solve the problem, and I don't really believe it is an X problem, because the airport interface doesn't wake up (I can't ping the PB) either. 2. PCMCIA doesn't work with ide-cs.o (a camera flash card). Neither kernel works actually. I get a nice lengthy dump, which I can post, but I would rather have a kernel (and modules) which work. 3. MOL networking doesn't work. Ping works, but larger packets (like web surfing) don't make it out of MOL Ben's Kernel 2.4.20-benh-9mdk seems to have the PCMCIA problem (very similar dumps), and today I was having problem mounting multiformat CDs (iso9660 & hfs). The automounter (which runs as part of nautilus, or so it appears) doesn't mount the CD properly. Root can mount the cd explicitly with a mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom. But that is a pain. I have used easy urpmi to point to the core distro, external addons, even PLF. Doing a urpmq -r kernel yields only the 2 kernels (listed above). So, is anyone using a kernel other than these two, on a G3 (Pismo) PB, and have these things, which I have listed, working? I don't even mind compiling a kernel, but it would be nice to know that someone else actually had it working first. Thanks for the help, Craig...

Re: 9.1 Installation problems...
Micah Buckley-Farlee wrote: Sounds pretty straightforward - you're out of space. What size partitions did you use? I used the "erase hard drive option," which appears to just partition everything using the defaults. I tried messing around with the custom partitioning a bit, but I would always get a "no bootstrap" error when I try to save the partitioning scheme. If anyone could give me a fix for this, but also give me a good way to partition a 38GB hard drive for Mandrake, please tell me. I am sure Stew will have better ideas, but I have encountered that dreaded "no bootstrap" error (stew it is darn irritating). The reason you get that is because you have no free space less that 10MB (or maybe it is 1MB). If you create a partition table like any sane individual you would create partitions for whatever you need on the MacOS side, and then a /, /boot, /usr (maybe), /home, /opt (if you have a really big disk), /usr/local (if you are an old timer and don't use /opt. Of course you don't need all those, but those are the more popular. Then you have filled the disk with all of these partitions with no free space (after all that is what the partition game is all about, making sure that all the disk is allocated). The Mandrake installer, however complains bitterly if you didn't leave any free space for it to "automagically" create a bootstrap partition (which will be used by ybin). As best as I understand it, you (the user) can't create this bootstrap partion, the install has to do it. So make sure you have some free space at the end, if you are manually partitioning. I hope this helps, Craig...

Ri:Re: ANNOUNCE: OpenOffice.org Build 641B released for PPC Linux (fwd)
java and Internet
Hi people, Mandrake is beautiful: no doubt. But it' impossible to surf on internet and exploit the java application. Netscape is obsolete, Mozilla for PPC does not support java, and so on Opera, Konqueror, etc. I installed Kaffe without succes. Does anyone to advice me how to resolve the problem? Thanks in advance.
