Hey,

Yes, I'know Miboot. Debian use it with boot floppies. In fact, miboot,
seem to
use Mac Os Rom to boot linux. But I tested to boot an kernel 2.6.9
with miboot
on a floppy and it didn't work. So, maybe I would try it with my hard
drive.

I've my PowerMac G3 300Mhz since 3 weeks, and I tried to boot it to
linux since
3 weeks...

Quik use Openfirmware to boot it, I booted successfully yesterday, but
I've a problem :
He does'nt always boot. When I reboot, I've Default Catch and Claimed
failed.
I think it is a problem of flags on the partition table of hard drive
but I must
to verify my theory.

Thank for your answer.

Cordialy
