A few months ago, I was having trouble with the Ultra-ATA drive in a dual G4
tower. The 9.1 system would install, but not boot. Eventually I gave up and
moved the HD to the "normal" ATA bus on the motherboard. The drive won't show
up at all in the normal mdk kernels, smp or enterprise, if it's c

I took both bits of advice. rebuilt the rpm database twice, then ran 'urpmi

Hello,
On this machine (dual G4), mol works if I boot the system with a single-cpu
kernel, but it won't launch if running the "enterprise" kernel. This is

hi, i'm not sure
Suggestion:
it seems that CUPS will not see AppleTalk printers unless netatalk is running
first. I changed the order for starting these up at boot time so that
netatalk starts before cups, and now it sees the printers without having to
restart cups.

Just to share the experience...
Moving the drive to the ATA-66 bus allowed me to complete the install and then
boot it up. XFDrake then got the GUI working (but now the consoles are
invisible if XFree is up, odd)

booting off the installer CD works, and the only way it seems to get anywhere

hi,
following the instructions at:

I'm trying to connect an old HP LaserJet 4 with a GDT powerprint
adapter.
I had this working under an old version of SuSE once (probably should
have left it alone! if it ain't broke...).
With MDK8.2
i don't know the numbers, but maybe looking at Linux on PPC as a whole,
counting ALL distros instead of only MDK, would be more convincing to
something the size of Macromedia. I'm sure if you looked at any one PPC
distro, the numbers would be disappointing, but add it all up and it may be
much
ok, it's back. I think. Haven't tried rebooting yet. But downgrading seems to
have worked.
For the archives:
Cooker: don't use it on a machine (or perhaps partition) your life depends on.
Seriously, just don't even go there. I was warned and did it anyway. Now I
know. Just Don't.

Yeah, this is updated from 8.0 --> very cooker --> 8.2, so maybe
something was missed or funky.

netatalk and MOL is the best long-term solution for this problem...
also consider dumping your files to a zip disk, burn a CD-RW, or some
other removable if you don't need to do this very often.
or maybe there's some way to do it with NFS? probably more trouble than
it's worth.
