Hello all, I've done a fair bit of looking around on the above subject and tried many times to get Debian running on the G3 here but have to resort to troubling you folks.
Spec: OW biege G3 - 333MHz 8gig HD SCSI CD drive (from what I've read, no chance of installing from CD drive) I'm using BootX from a small OS9 partition. I've used a net-drivers floppy to run the installer. I used "guided" partitioning option, installaton starts, fine. Then at the end it tries to use install quik, I'm not to sure on playing with OF so select complete without bootloader. Then am told location of boot disk (/dev/sda7) and to pass "root=/dev/sda7" as a kernal argument. When I've attempted to re-boot via bootX with above details a bunch of stuff flashes past the screen and ends with something like "VFS cannot open root device sda7 please append a correct root= option" Can anyone help/hold my hand through this install?
