Greetings:
I have multiple hard drives, one is HFS+ (w/out journaling) split
between Jaguar and YDL. The YDL partition has about 20 GB. I've ran
thru the YDL manual-installation process and was sure to create a 1 MB
Apple boot drive and set the target HD at the root '/' directory per
instructions. I did the custom install of options and used the first
3 disk for installation.
At the end, the installer said 'congrats' and rebooted. What I got
was the default Jaguar boot (the second partition).
The result:
1) The Linux (YDL) HD is not visible on the desktop; nor can I see it
under the System Profiler.
2) The Disk Utility does see the YDL disk as a generic disk with the
name 'disk0s3'; *** Not Mounted ***.
Question: How can I make the YDL disk mountable and selectable; and
hence BOOTABLE at startup?
Regards,
Ric.
