Maybe an Apple forum? Or a Cult of Mac support group? I didn't know you could get a mac on the network. Do you have Apple Talk? -- kai www.perfectreign.com | www.ecmplace.com www.twitter.com/PerfectReign -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi, here are links to howto's that I wrote and placed on the openSUSE site. See if they can help you. http://en.opensuse.org/SuSE_FTP_Net_Install_with_screenshots http://en.opensuse.org/SuSE_HTTP_Net_Install_with_screenshots You will have to replace the 32 bit pc selection with powerpc selection when you make the net install cd.

I just know that my Mac has no network connectivity. http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/2009/darth_mac.jpg There's the guy that sits in my office and glares over at me. Now - back On Topic so Shannon won't get mad. Anyone know of a good Crystal Quest port to openSUSE? I recently found Stella working and have an abundance of Atari 2600 games for openSUSE - http://www.perfectreign.com/stuff/2009/20090321_stella_pitfall.jpg - but not Crystal Quest. (Yes, I have googled.) -- kai www.perfectreign.com | www.ecmplace.com www.twitter.com/PerfectReign -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That depends on just what sort of help you require. If it's a question of will it work, in my experience the answer is yes. If it's anything else, just ask the questions. You may get the answers on this list, although it's pretty unlikely to be from me. It's close to two years since I did a net-install on a Mac, and I used Debian rather than openSUSE. You might find the opensuse-ppc mailing list more helpful, since it is specific to the PPC architecture and all the posters on that list use PPC based systems.

Try burning at a slower speed. My general rule is to burn DVDs no faster than 8x, even on my fastest machines, or CDs faster than 24x.

still no good burning program says it's good but the self check on the cd says different can't do much till I get a good disc -- Hans Krueger hanskrueger007@roadrunner.com registered Linux user 289023 411024 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It may be an idea to verify that the image itself is okay using any of these: checkmedia openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc.iso md5sum -c openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc.iso.md5 sha1 -c openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc.iso.sha1 You can find the md5 and sha1 checksum files here: URL:http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/iso/openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc... URL:http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/iso/openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc... The "checkmedia openSUSE-11.1-NET-ppc.iso" command checks the contents of the image and is the same check that YaST can do at the start of the installation.
