I'm trying to install SuSE10 on a Mac Mini, having successfully installed it on an old iMac DV400. I carefully followed all the directions at http://www.opensuse.org/PPC, and the install goes through OK, but nothing I can do will persuade lilo to be happy. When I run it, I get: linux:~ # /sbin/lilo running on pmac_new BOOT_DEVICEPATH = /pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:2 OTHER_DEVICEPATH = /pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:7 hmount: /dev/hda2: not a Macintosh HFS volume (Invalid argument) It's this last line I'm concerned about. The partition map is: Partition map (with 512 byte blocks) on '/dev/hda' #: type name length base ( size ) 1: Apple_partition_map 'Apple ' 63 @ 1 2: Apple_Bootstrap 'bootstrap ' 20480 @ 64 ( 10.0M) 3: Apple_HFS 'spare_hfs ' 20480 @ 20544 ( 10.0M) 4: Linux 'spare_linux ' 20480 @ 41024 ( 10.0M) 5: Linux 'swap ' 2048000 @ 61504 (1000.0M) 6: Linux 'root ' 106573104 @ 2109504 ( 50.8G) 7: Apple_HFS 'Apple_HFS_Untitled_4' 47618864 @ 108682608 ( 22.7G) 8: Apple_Free ' ' 16 @ 156301472 My reading of the opensuse.org web pages is that I should direct the bootloader to /dev/hda2. hda6 is root. hda7 contains a MacOS install. My lilo.conf is: boot=/dev/hda2 timeout=100 default=linux activate image=/boot/vmlinux initrd=/boot/initrd label=linux append="root=/dev/hda6 sysrq=1" other=/dev/hda7 label=macos What am I doing wrong?
