> I'd install YDL 5.0.2 onto an external FireWire drive, Easier said than done. YDL 5.0.2 refuses to recognize the external FireWire drive (a Maxtor 5000DV) as anything it will agree to install to. I've tried having the drive connected when I boot the machine as well as plugging it in afterwards; I've disconnected the internal IDE hard drives; I've made sure that sbp2 is loaded, that I see the kernel messages related to plugging in the drive, and I've even hand- made the b,8,0 /dev entry for sda (which YDL didn't create when it loaded sbp2 and the drive was present) so I could run pdisk on it. Everything is working fine as far as the hardware goes. YDL just won't play with me.
I suppose I haven't tried hand-loading sd_mod yet... But this is supposed to be Apple... Easy to work with and no Linux nerd tweaking required, right? :-) -- Atro Tossavainen (Mr.) / The Institute of Biotechnology at Systems Analyst, Techno-Amish & / the University of Helsinki, Finland, +358-9-19158939 UNIX Dinosaur / employs me, but my opinions are my own. < URL : http : / / www . helsinki . fi / %7E atossava / > NO FILE ATTACHMENTS _______________________________________________ yellowdog-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-general HINT: to Google archives, try '<keywords> site:terrasoftsolutions.com'
