i have gone through the base install booting from the floppies as i cant seem to boot from the CDs and once it is installed i cant get linux to boot from the HD i have tried yaboot, quik, and trying to boot through the open firmware but none of these methods work and i think there might be an incompatibility with debian and the PB 3400 trying to boot from the HD
i have tried with both keeping 2.0 kernel compatibility and without keeping it when booting from the open firmware using "make bootable directly from hard disk" i get quik boot promt: boot: but to even get quik to load i need to do a setenv boot-device ata0/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0:4 as 4 is my root partition, 2 is my bootstrap partition for when i tried yaboot and 3 is my swap and i need to have it boot to the open firmware i cant let it auto boot or the machine never starts up... if i type /vmlinux i get: Read error on block 1651470196 Read error on block 1651470196 Image not found.... try again boot: if i type /boot/vmlinux-2.2.17 i get: (the spinning line) (screen blacks as if going into linux) (goes white back to OF) ... ok copying OF device tree...done Initing fake screen DEFAULT CATCH!, code=FFF00300 at %SRR0: 00201008 %SRR1: 00003070 ok 0 > if there is any other specific information that you need i can try to get it....
