Used vmlinux, all.gz, 34000, and "text", and the system installed fine.A
Have installed Beta2.
Now Mandrake is in, I've got two issues
(1) On boot, the G3 loads up the Mac OS, and then I have to manually
start BootX to go into Linux. In comparision, YellowDog Linux starts up
BootX automatically at boot time. So how does one enable autoboot via
BootX into Linux as per YellowDog?
(2) After install, modules aren't being loaded. Here are some relevant
entries from the /var/log/boot
----------------------------
depmod: Can't open lib/modules/2.4.18-4mdkBOOT/modules.dep for writing
rc.sysinit: finding module dependencies failed
--------------------
Note: authorisation on modules.dep is -rw--r--r--
Also, if I run modprobe as root, I get the following response...
Can't open dependencies file
/lib/modules/2.4.18-4mdkBOOT/modules.dep (No such file or directory)
Please advise, how to fix the module loading problem?
Much appreciated.
Stephen
