OSX-installation fails

Hi!

I try to install osx 10.1 on a separate scsi-disk (/dev/sdb) from
mol-0.9.70
on a rs6k 43P-140 604e 332MHz running Suse 7.3 with kernel:2.4.20-pre7.

I can format & partition the disk from within the OSX-installer.
The installation starts and runs for a while.

Then the installer aborts when "Configuring OSX".
"There were errors installing the software, Please try installing again"

This is how molrc.osx looks like:
------------------------------------
ram_size:               256
disable_altivec:        yes
processor:              601  # Tried with 604 but it paniced.

blkdev:             /tmp/cdimage.osx      -boot1
blkdev:             /dev/sdb                   -rw  -whole

autoprobe_scsi:         no
scsi_dev:               "0:0:6"
enable_usb:             no
------------------------------------

/dev/sdb looks like this, when partitioned by osx-installer
pdisk -l /dev/sdb

Partition map (with 512 byte blocks) on '/dev/sdb'

Any Ideas, anyone?
