Yes... and as long as I boot off the same drive, I have no problems. The
problems is when I select a different drive to boot of. Not a different
partition, but a different drive.

Ah, I originally thought this thread was about the corrupted mac-fdisk
binary problem we had, but going back and rereading it I'm not sure.

I have a B&W G3 with debian, and I have 4 drives on it... I have debian
and mac installed on the IDE master drive, and macos alone on the slave.
The problem is, when I boot on macos on the slave drive, I can't later
reboot on debian, since it always goes back to the mac partition and it
doesn't re

I didn't know about gzcat not being available. I thought I remembered
seeing it in debian, anyway.

I have a fixed root.bin that can be used. It has the mac-fdisk that
someone else posted put in place within in:
http://docwhat.gerf.org/files/fixed3018.bin
It is otherwise identical to the 3018 root.bin available now.
Why can't someone replace the root.bin with a fixed one?
Ciao!

I am trying to use xmms or freeamp to play mp3s using Debian on PowerMac G4
533 MHZ dualie. I can play the songs fine as root, but cannot play
them as a normal
user. What should the user/group/permissions be for the audio devices?
Right now
the devices are owned by root, and are c-rw-rw---.
