problems booting suseppc on ibook
I installed the suseppc6.4 on an ibook from CD and with the argument "video=ofonly" and run the os-chooser script. So this worked fine. But when i try to (re-)boot the linux with bootx-CP the linux installscript will start everytime :-( So i tried booting via openfirmware and os-chooserscript. I set the boot-device to "hd:<linuxbootpartNo>os-chooser". Now i can run linux while holding down <space> but when I try to run MacOS, the ibook will stop at the openfirmwareprompt :-( If theres someone who might to have a solution for ONE of these ways, please mail to me or to the list because i have to make the ibook runnig till Monday morning :-((( thanx in advance Martino ms@empirium.de -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net

BootX will load the ramdisk in the same folder or in the Systemfolder. You must add always the "video=ofonly" argument on the iBook with the kernel on the CD. Edit your yaboot.conf and insert that in the append= line. Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented...
