during my installation- trys of mandrake i've got the feeling there are some problems with the ati-fb settings (RADEON?)
You need a newer kernel. Download this file: ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/kernel/BETA/deflt/vmlinux.initrd.elf-pmac rename it to "install" and copy it to the root of your 32mb boot partition. Then go to OpenFirmware with command+option+o+f and type boot hd:9,install video=ofonly The 9 is the partition number, that may vary in your setup.
How long I have to wait for PPC7.3 SuSE and will 7.3 boot and install on my mac?
I will be available in the next days. Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented...
