Hey,

I've a problem to boot linux on my PowerMac Server G3 300 (who is an OldWord
PowerMac Beige). I can't boot in the OpenFirmare and It seem that I must apply
System Disk to apply a patch. I'vnt MacOS CD, and so I use the Disk Tools PPC
floppy to run a minimalist Mac Os. But I can't run the excutable file.
Is anybody knows how to load SystemDisk with a Disk Tools PPC floppy ?
I need to apply Patch on the NVRAM to boot linux with quik.
I haven't MacOs and I use the Disk Tools PPC floppy to boot a MacOs.

Thank for your help.
