Hello, I am trying to install 7.3 on a umax c600, with a Sonnet Crescendo G3/L2 card and internal SCSI CD drive. The MacOS is v8.1. I'm booting with extensions off, so the G3 card is not active (though I hope it will eventually run under Linux!) As advised in a recent post to this list, I downloaded the 2.4.2 kernel and ramdisk image. I am running BootX from a suseboot folder on my hard disk. Things seem to start out fine, with Tux the Penquin bobbing his head and tapping his foot a few times. The last messages printed to the console are:
SuSE installation program v1.1.18 (c) 1996-2001 SuSE Gmbh <<< Starting hardware detection..
Then it seems to hang, as it tries to read from the CD. Earlier, as the kernel is booting, it recognizes the CD drive as: Toshiba CD-ROM XM-5701TA Rev:0167 Are there any special kernel arguments I should be using? I never seem to get to a command prompt once the kernel takes over from MacOS. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Guy
