Hi,

We try to install Debian 3.0.2 on a macOSX. To prevent problems on the main hard drive, we would like to install Debian on a second one. It's an IBM DHEA-36481 of 6,4 Go. We had formated it and create two partitions on it : one for exchange datas and the other to install debian. And we put it in master (c�ble select (16 logical head)). In order to reconize the second hard drive, we tape : install24 hda=12592,16,63 idebus=66 at the begin of the installation.

But the problem is that it can't see the two partitions when we want create partitions with mac-fdisk. We have those two messages : Can't read block 0 from file (Input/output error) and no partition map exists. And we have error messages when we type : dmesg :

Partition Check:
hda: hda: status error: status=0x2 {DeviceFault}
hda: drive not ready for command
ide0: reset: master: error(0x0a?)
...
end_request: dev 03:00 (hda): sector 0

Have you any idea of the problem? Does it come from the ISO image of Debian (Debian/PowerPC_woody)?
If you need more informations...

Thanks in advance,

Sophie
