Machine ... 350MHz iMac with 256 Meg of RAM. Otherwise standard excepte for external usb//parallel converter for the Laserjet printer. Very little progress until I read the instructions!!
Follwed up on Stew Benedict's advice ... to NOT label the bootstrap partition as /boot! Also (after reading the instructions) decided to follow them ... installing MacOS and leaving the rest of the drive unallocated. Linux installer found and used all the newly created vacant space ... and the installer went ahead. The installer still 'barfed' on testing the video display ... but I was ready amd knew the correct entries for my iMac. Very good ... and am delighted to be 'playing' with it now. Only other 'wrinkle' was to entry a longer delay into 'post-init delay' ... as suggested elsewhere in the list. Thanks for the help people...
