I tried to install darwin w/ the famous XPF 2.2b9 onto a ATA drive reformatted for it (HFS+, and partition w/ data 0.
First of all, after a reboot, a message of claim failed due to the memory I suppose (faq netbsd answer me). (load-base 600000 or real-base 6F00000 affected ??. ) I suppose it is 6Mb for load-base and real-base to 111Mb of memory (why don't use all memory 700000?...). Then I tried w/ another data load-base 100000 and real-base F00000 from linux and netbsd faq. Some problems occur like IOcatalogue.oldworldsupport.PowersurgeCPU which can be loaded. The AppleMacIO self test failing and a mesh interrupt problem. The last error message was "Mesh 0 0 do hardwarde interrupt- mesh interrupt problem : phase mismatch interrupt.". At least, it seems not to find the root device. I used XPF 2.2b9 patched w/ a ressource changed by Pierre d'Herbemont. because the original give me the word bootr not recognised even if it's patched into the OF by XPF. The syntax isn't like the alchemy.r file. Forth is a strange language. If we have a space instead of a character. It fails. I remember It seems that it 's the same problem w/ the first versions of mklinux. I doesn't try the new versions. I don't know if it'll work. I haven't this problem w/ linux (since the kernel 2.2.18). I saw late yesterday in the kernel sources that the mesh.c file hasn't interrupts but a delay. I don't know if it can be applied into the boot process. I submit it to the author if it can help him to succeed. I congratulate him to do such work, and give us hope. It also satisfies Apple even if they stop supporting the ancient Machines. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
