I have an iMac 333Mhz with a 6 Gig drive and 96MB RAM. I did a netboot
and an FTP install of Mandrake PPC 8.2, and the install process seemed
to go well. When it said I needed to reboot to start Mandrake, I did so.
I get a bootloader menu and choose "l" for linux. Then Yaboot comes up,
and soon it attempts to load the kernel. It then fails:

"hd:5,/vmlinuz-2.4.18-6.1mdk: Unknown or corrupt filesystem"

I tried going into OpenFirmware and entering:

"setenv boot-device hd:5,\\:tbxi"

Rebooting after this produces exactly the same results.


Any ideas on how to get my iMac to boot Mandrake would be hugely
appreciated.


Thanks,
Curtis
