Hi,
I have been trying to get MOLK (which is based on mol-0.9.71_pre8 from
gentoo's josejx) installed on a PegII, and I am just not having any
luck. When launched with 10.1 DVD (the only full install I have
available) in the DVD drive, the tux/apple logo scatter loads (the last
few bits come up very slowly), the dvd light flickers constantly, and
the console has a continous stream of lines that read:
read: scsi_cmd failed
The DVD drive works under Debian, which is how Debian got installed on
this machine as well. It is on the secondary, slave channel (hdd). Using
other OSX update dvd's I have, I get the same error message. I don't
expect they would work, but I would expect a different error if it was
the disk or its contents.
The hd is primary master, and the third partion (hda3) is the intended
partion to install on should I ever get that far. The important bits in
mol/molrc.osx are:
blkdev:/dev/hda3 -rw -force
blkdev:/dev/hdd -cd
I've seen others have used a DVD install. Using mount -t hfsplus under
Debian, I am able to mount the OSX 10.1 DVD and do an ls -R to dump the
directory structure.
Any ideas? Any additional info someone might need to help me debug this
installation?
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Dan
