I had this strange experience: mol started well a MacOs 9.O.4 and I went
to the kitchen. Meanwhile the BootX extension has launched, unatttended, and
when I came back from the kitchen, I was in the LinuxPPC Installer.
I was very surprised; I tried Ctl-Z, and I felt in a shell working fine !
(except that every key get the corresponding caracter being entered 3 or 4
times). I was able to launch the ls command, and have the answer !
So I'm absolutly sure that BootX is able to start a LinuxPPC with inird
when it is started by BootX as a Boot Extension at MacOS init time under
MOL.
Linux PPC kernel (the first !) 2.4.3 MOL 0.9.57
LinuxPPC Intaller from LinuxPPC 2000 (feb 2000) kernel 2.2.5pre3.
Perhaps the mahgic stands on this Installer that I don't know very well.
I seems that MOL is more and more robust.
Salutations.
