Hi there, If you do decide to use "Drive Setup" on the Mac, you must have the most recent stable version which is, I seem to remember, 1.9.2. I think the version on the original MacOS disk is 1.9.1 which crashed all the time for me. Break the disk up into say 5 or 6 partitions and setup the Mac partitions first. Move the arrows back on forth to set the partition sizes and TAB to skip to the next partition. You must have an HFS partition for Linux Boot (assuming yaboot is used) but any other Mac partitions can be HFS+ Use AUX/root type or equiv and swap type for the partitions then in Yast, format them ext2. to clean them up. This worked for on a PwerBook G3 500 which is just a souped up iMac. Bruce.

How did you partition the drive? If the whole disk is supposed for Linux you can use the yast itself to partition the whole drive.

I tried using the "FWB HardDisk Toolkit". I tried using the Apple "Drive Setup" (that comes with MacOS 9) None of them worked (anyway the installation procces freezes the Mac)

I tried to use YaST to partition the drive but then this procces freezes the Mac before mounting the partitions!

Anyway, if I use YaST to partition the drive, should I leave an HFS partition? How shall I boot and select one disk or the other? I must say that the SuSE documentation on the printed manual is pretty confusing...

Thanks for your help! Tomás
