I just set up a separate partition on my regular hard disk to enable direct boot using miBoot.
I did the following steps: Resize (i.e. shrink) existing MacOS HFS partition with "parted". Create a new partition in resulting space using "mac-fdisk". Establish a new HFS file system using "hformat" (it is part of hfsutils). Copy contents of latest miBoot ISO to new space (unfortunately I had to switch to MacOS to correctly copy the files. Is there another way to do this on Linux? hcopy didn't worked as expected. Perhaps I should have used -m) Modified yaboot.conf (partition was mounted on Linux, yaboot.conf was reformatted to regular linux ascii files. still works) to match my local root partition and added an entry for latest 2.4.30-pre1 miboot.image. Have a nice weekend! Cheers, Florian ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. Do you grep through log files for problems? Stop!
