Re: bootloader on IBM ppc (RS/6000 B50)
With everyone's help I have been able to get SuSE 10.1 "loaded" to the point of rebooting. However, the only way I could get this far was to select the "Do NOT Install Boot Loader" option. Again, I've scoured the various SuSE sites (open and closed) and not seen definitively how to load a workable boot loader for this particular box. Therefore, anyone with IBM CHRP experience (Olaf?) could you PLEASE give an experienced AIX guy and SuSE x86 supporter some detailed instructions on what/how to accomplish this? Quite frankly, installing on x86 was quite a "piece of cake" compared to this and I cannot believe that if Linux is to succeed on IBM Power boxen the distro that succeeds will be the one that overcomes this hassle. As Olaf's recommendation I did read through the PPC:Boot pseries info but it didn't exactly state how one would go about accomplishing this feat. Anyone? Olaf? Thanks all. Bob
