The iBook G3 come with a white LED that's active if the device sleeps.
On 10.2 during installation you seem to misuse it to signal hard disk
activity. How can I disable it?

Hi,
I got some problems (disk access denied, bus errors,...) that led me to
go into single user mode and fsck my partitions. I noticed then that
there were some directories created in the tmp directory, called "dev"
and "etc", and one file in the / directory called "success" with 0
length. At reboot, these files disapeared. Does anybody know if this
could be a sign of a hacked computer ? I mean could someone have
installed a rootkit or some such ?
I'm not paranoid but this indeed seems strange.
Cheers
Damir

Hi,
A friend of mine want me to install linux on his old ppc-powered
laptop mac. However, his cd-rom reader is broken and can't be used so
my plan was to make a net install using a usb stick to boot (if that's
possible).
I've found some howtos on the wiki, which tells me
- either to use some script (makeSuseBootDisk or something like that)
that does not work with ppc (didn't try, I just looked at the help
section in the script)
- either to copy all files from the boot/<arch>/loader directory from
the cd and do some weird stuffs afterward, but there is no loader
directory on the ppc mini-iso.
So, what do I need to do to make a bootable usk disk from the net
install ppc iso ?
Thanks in advance.
Thomas
PS : I've posted a similar question on the forums, but the response I
got didn't convinced me.
