Excellent recipe. I had some troubles until I commented out the line : device=/pci@f2000000/ .... I had a flashback to 1995 and learning to install SLackware 2.1 on a 486... except I didn't need 65 floppies :) | "Marco Bonetti" did incant and limn: |On Mon, February 9, 2009 22:12, Ben Bauer wrote: |> So, to make this work, I will boot from slackintosh cd and |> mount /dev/hdb3.

You need to: |+ boot off from the slackintosh dvd |+ mount hdb |+ mount both proc, sys and dev over the hdb root |+ chroot into hdb |+ edit both fstab and yaboot.conf |+ run both "mkofboot" and "ybin -v" to install the bootstrap partition |(mkofboot is not needed if you use hdb bootstrap but refer to previous |mail for why not to choose it) | |Detailed instruction for mounting dev and proc from the gentoo handbook: |http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-ppc.xml?part=1&chap=6#doc_chap1 |For sys just mount it normally.
