>My equipment ; 7600 G3 400/1MB , OS8.6
>Vehicle: Stock linuxPPC 2000 / GNOME Desktop
> Ref: Mac-on Linux User's guide and downloaded molrc "help"
>what I have done
1. downloaded ,on the Mac side, Mac OS ROM Update (8.6)

2. Using TOME, extracted MAC OS ROM , and dragged to System File
on starup drive

3. Transferred MAC OS ROM image to linux/rom file as rom.nw via
 mount and strip_nwrom. Cheked OK at that location.

4.When command startmol get following error msg
-This kernel is NOT runtime patched
-Failed applying the mol-patches to the kernel

5 Things I looked at

-/boot/system see MACOS ROM

-/boot see 2.2.15pre3 (boot up stock kernel) and
             2.2.14-1.3 ?????

-/usr/src/linux-2.2.14 ????

6. so what do I do now? Users guide says that I should boot into MAC.
No mention of "patches" required for this newworld ROM. Have OS8.6

thanks for your time

albert
