Ok, well I've decided to try running mol and so far have had no luck
:-(. I have just installed YDL4.0 and run yum, run the mol video
config app and configured the mount points which looks like:
# -*- perl -*- (for emacs syntax coloring)
#
# /etc/mol/molrc.osx
#
# Mac-on-Linux master configuration file for MacOS X booting
#
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Parse other config files (these files are in /etc/mol/)
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
include ${etc}/molrc.video # video configuration
include ${etc}/molrc.input # mouse and keyboard
include ${etc}/molrc.net # networking
include ${etc}/molrc.sound # sound
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Misc Settings
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ram_size: 96
disable_altivec: no
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# OS X Volumes
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Volumes to be mounted in MacOS X are specified through the
# blkdev keyword:
#
# blkdev: <device> [flags]
#
# where <device> can be a complete disk (/dev/hda), a single
# partition (/dev/hda7) or a disk image.
#
# The following flags are supported
#
# -rw/-ro read-write / read-only [default]
# -force force usage of device (be careful!)
# -boot boot from this disk
# -boot1 boot from this disk (ignore other -boot flags)
# -whole export the entire device (including
# any non-HFS partitions). BE CAREFUL!
# -cd CDROM/DVD
#
# MOL will boot from CD if it invoked through 'startmol -X --cdboot'.
blkdev: /dev/cdrom -cd ${cdboot}
ifempty ${altconfig} {
# default configuration
blkdev: /dev/hda -rw
blkdev: /dev/hdb -rw
blkdev: /dev/sda -rw
blkdev: /dev/sdb -rw
blkdev: /dev/hda3 -boot -rw
} else {
# alternate configuration
blkdev: /tmp/osx.image -rw
#blkdev: /dev/loop0 -rw
}
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# SCSI configuration (also relevant for IDE CDs and other SCSI-like devices)
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# By default, MOL automatically scans for non-harddisk type SCSI devices.
# If only specified SCSI devices are to be used by mol, change the
# the autoprobe setting below.
#
# Note: IDE, firewire and USB devices typically show up as SCSI devices.
autoprobe_scsi: yes
# If SCSI autoprobing is disabled then devices must be exported manually
#scsi_dev: "0:0:0" # host/channel/id
#scsi_dev: "1:0:0" #
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# USB Configuration
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Generic USB support. Devices that are _not_ claimed by specific
# USB drivers are seen by MOL. Note: Make sure the kernel is compiled
# with 'Preliminary USB device filesystem' support. Also, for best effect,
# turn off drivers for specific USB devices (like 'USB Scanner support').
enable_usb: yes
however when I do as myself or root startmol -X I do get tux hugging a
apple and the rotating icon below but mol quickly quits, I then can
find in the terminal this error:
------> The volume '/dev/hda3' is locked
Unembedded HFS+ /dev/hda3 <read-only> 14179 MB BOOT
which I'd assume most likely is what is causing mol to suddenly quit
(can't seem to find any other errors...)? how do I unlock the
partition so I can boot mol? MacOS X runs fine when not running from
within YDL...also one last thing, how do I make it so mol runs in a
window and not fullscreen? any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in
advance!
