i finally got mol to boot macos9. 

is there a howto somewhere about getting the network to work? 

is it possible to use dvd-player under mol? 

does mol support other than 8 and 15 bit video modes when using xvideo 
driver? how can i enable them? 
15bit modes seem to be quite buggy, colors are all wrong, so i have to use 
8bit mode and it's no good. (15bit modes also don't work correctly in 
xwindows, i'm using 16bit modes. my machine is iMac DV)

i can't run mol on console, if i try i only get a blank screen. also, if i 
run molvconfig i only get a blank screen. what could cause this? 

does/will mol support firewire?

i tried to boot osx installer cd under mol, but it fails.. saying 
something like this: 
Boot device: /mol-blk/disk@0:0
<*> -------------------------------------------
<*> MacOS X boot loader started
<*> Trying to load /mol-blk/disk@0:0,\mach_kernel.mol
<*> Opening partition [/mol-blk/disk@0:0]...
<*> Ext2InitPartition: 1
<*> Trying to load /mol-blk/disk@0:0,\mach_kernel
<*> Opening partition [/mol-blk/disk@0:0]...
<*> Ext2InitPartition: 2
<*> --> BootX failure: failed to load the mach kernel

also, where to find information howto run linux under mol? 


i guess that's all for now, it's 8am and i could use some sleep now...

nosfe.
