>HTH >--Nelson Abramson You mean load a MacOS, boot MacOS, have a MacApp steal the built-in video driver support, and a few other OpenFirmware deficient bits of information, then bounce boot into linux? Been there, Done that -with a few LinuxPPC variants. I was hoping to work on a basic set of true boot-floppies.... Take one oldworld mac, a stack of "Debian" installation floppies and irrespective of what's on the HD, stick the first disk in and boot/install. Similar to "slink" installation floppies for the ix86, or gasp even MacSystem7.61 ------Layne
