access to MacOS partition files?
How does one access files in the MacOS partitions of a harddisk, for example from an ibook actively running SUSE7.3ppc? Thanks in advance, Torben

There is only support for normal hfs, not hfs+. Use hfsutils to copy files from and to a hfs volume. hmount /dev/hda9 hls -tla hcopy -t /etc/fstab :fstab.txt hcd Systemfolder hcopy Finder /tmp/ humount Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented...

does the codeweaver cross over plug run on PPC? If so, then you are set I think
Codeweaver is x86-only AFAIK...ISTR it basically is an x86 binary that takes Windows x86 binary plugins and lets x86 Linux browsers use them. Much in the same way that WINE is also x86-only (and MOL is PPC-only), for obvious reasons -- it's not an emulator, just a runtime environment of sorts.

So, a bunch of folks should write to Macromedia about a compile on PPC :~) I
used to have a contact over there in the City, if I dig it up I will repost.
I bet they just never had a PPC system or desire.

Jon

I buied suSE Linux ppc 7,3. I installed it My hardware: G3 beige 266 Mhz video: ATI Mach 64 2 MB Ram hda= maxtor 40 GB (MacOs 9, 8.6, X, documents) hdb= CDRom 24X Apple (Matshita) IDE hdc= CDWriter Acer 4x4x32 IDE hdd= Samsung 8 GB (SuSELinux) Controller USB PCI two ports + Hub USB 4 ports TV Video Card TurboTV Monitor Apple 15'' AV Printer: Canon S400 Scanner: Microtek 3600 Mass storage 1= Syquest SCSI 230 MB Mass storage 2= Superdisk USB 120 MB The first problem: printing I setup my Canon S4OO with YaST 2. It print. After the reboot not more. Message: dev/usb/lp0 device not found. What? and Why? The device in Yast2 is /dev/usblp0. There is something wrong, where? The second problem: TV Card I setup my TV Card TurboTV with YaST 2: recognized. Well. I want to see TV. I open Kwintv. Result: segmentation fault. No problem, I open xawtv. It works. But no scantv configuration. I can only see three channels and very bad. On Mac Os my card works in excellent way. Where is the problem? I tried with a lot of id n. card with rmmod, modprobe, lsmod and all the mod you want. The system doesn't care a jot about my setup. Interesting.... The third (for the moment) problem: mastering two essais: with kernel 2,4,12 and 2,4,16 first essay I load ide-scsi module, I add on boot.local /sbin/modprobe ide-scsi. I insert on bootX hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi Well the system recognize my two IDE devices as SCSI devices, but it is impossible to mount it. A list of errors appair. Plus: it doesn't recognize my Syquest, but Superdisk USB is recognized. Uff.... Second essay I install new kernel (2,4,16) it as ide-scsi compiled in itself, no modprobe necessary. I add on bootX hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi. Well the system recognize my two IDE devices as SCSI devices. I try to mount it. It is possible only if it is ISO9660 format, if it is HFS, the system crash, no, but something such: it open a terminal where i can only insert some command as d, e, x (to exit) etc. I'm really glad to see this nice situation, but I can't mount CD. Uhm.... Someone can help me? Thanks in advance. Salvatore Palermo-Sicily

Is printer.o loaded? Try modprobe printer, that loads the usb printer driver. If that solves the problem, put it in boot.local.

I dont know how to fix that.

The kernel hfs driver is broken. Use hfsutils to copy files from HFS CDs. hmount /dev/hdb hcd "My Folder" hcopy image.tiff /tmp humount. Please post the dmesg output, the external SCSI device should appear somewhere. Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented...
