I am dual booting OSX and OpenSUSE 10.0 RC1 PPC on a G4 Powermac digital audio using LILO. I set up LILO per the instructions in this document; http://www.opensuse.org/PPC_Installation_Issues The problem I am having is that I only get the "Press spacebar to boot OSX" prompt for maybe 2 seconds before yaboot comes up. How can I make that prompt appear longer? I have Linux set as the default in LILO . If I make OSX the default I have the opposite problem. Here is my /etc/lilo.conf boot=/dev/hda9 timeout=100 default=linux activate image=/boot/vmlinux initrd=/boot/initrd label=linux append="root=/dev/hda11 resume=/dev/hda11 quiet sysrq=1" other=/dev/hda10 label=macos ========================================================================================================================= Here is the result of pdisk -l Linux:~ # pdisk -l /dev/hda Partition map (with 512 byte blocks) on '/dev/hda' #: type name length base ( size ) 1: Apple_partition_map 'Apple ' 63 @ 1 2: Apple_Driver43*'Macintosh ' 56 @ 64 3: Apple_Driver43*'Macintosh ' 56 @ 120 4: Apple_Driver_ATA*'Macintosh ' 56 @ 176 5: Apple_Driver_ATA*'Macintosh ' 56 @ 232 6: Apple_FWDriver 'Macintosh ' 512 @ 288 7: Apple_Driver_IOKit 'Macintosh ' 512 @ 800 8: Apple_Patches 'Patch Partition ' 512 @ 1312 9: Apple_Bootstrap 'untitled ' 1954 @ 117090656 10: Apple_HFS 'Macintosh HD_1 ' 116826688 @ 263968 ( 55.7G) 11: Apple_UNIX_SVR2 'untitled ' 112525391 @ 117092610 ( 53.7G) 12: Apple_UNIX_SVR2 'swap ' 4823647 @ 229618001 ( 2.3G) 13: Apple_Free 'Extra ' 262144 @ 1824 (128.0M) Device block size=512, Number of Blocks=234441648 (111.8G) DeviceType=0x0, DeviceId=0x0 Drivers- 1: 23 @ 64, type=0x1 2: 36 @ 120, type=0xffff 3: 21 @ 176, type=0x701 4: 34 @ 232, type=0xf8ff ==================================================================================================================================

Edit /lib/lilo/lilo-pmac.lib, line 242. The single 3 is the number if seconds. echo "get-msecs d# 3 3E8 * +" We should make that a config option. -- short story of a lazy sysadmin: alias appserv=wotan

Excellent, that was it. Thank-you.
