What version of MoL are you using to boot OS9.1? I have an iBook2 running
Yellow Dog Linux 2.0 very nicely, using the stock 2.2.19 kernel that came with
it, along with the stock MoL, which is version 0.9.59-1. I have OS9.1
installed on the iBook, and MoL won't boot the MacOS (don't have the iBook
with me or I'd reproduce the error messages--the booting process just stops
with a blank window). I have successfully booted OS9, however, from CD-ROM,
and so I know that my setup can boot the MacOS. But of course I want to use
the OS9.1 installed on my hard drive, along with its applications. After much
rooting around in archives from this list, I saw someone who had the exact same
problem I did--his error messages were the same. The person who responded to
him said that OS9.1 requires MoL 0.60 to boot. Is this known to be true, and
does it require the 2.4 kernel? And if so, does anyone know where I can get
source or binaries for this version (beta, I take it) of MoL? I'm embarassed
to have to ask that, but I simply couldn't find the code on the maconlinux.org
site.
Thanks,
