Hello
I'm attempting to get mol-0.9.60 working on my Powerbook G3 (Kanga,
non-OSX compatible, the earliest PowerBook G3) running Ywllow Dog Linux 2.3
but from reading http://www.maconlinux.org/userguide/ I can't work out if I
need the old world boot or new world boot. There is no Mac OS ROM file in
my system folder. If someone can put me out of my misery I'd be very
grateful.
Every time I try to startmol the screen returns to the list of compatible
screen resolution settings I generated with molvconfig and the system is
completely unresponsive. (If there's a way I can regain control of it
rather than force quitting, that would also be very useful to know)
My system profile is below.
Thanks in advance for your patience.
Ian
