Hello Norayr, at least now you can boot your PB from floppy disk and CD-ROM. As there is no CD-ROM driver on the boot floppy you need to do a=20 special trick that at least works with the IDE CD-ROM drives in the=20 PowerBook 1400 (which is nearly identical to the PB5300). - insert both the MacOS CD-ROM and the boot floppy and reboot. - the computer should now boot from the floppy - if not try keeping the=20= mouse button pressed (after the startup sound) until it boots from the=20= floppy. - with the CD-ROM in the drive now there should be a CD-ROM driver=20 loaded and the CD-ROM should show up on the Desktop. - now copy the contents of the miboot CD to the harddisk (the miboot=20 partition needn't be larger than 10 MB - if it's larger create a=20 smaller one). - if the harddisk doesn't show up you need to format it with Drive=20 Setup or reboot to let the finder ask for formatting. - open the System Folder on the harddisk in order to make it the active=20= one (it must have the MacOS logo on it). - remove the floppy and CD from the drives and reboot. - miboot should boot now. - follow the instructions in the release notes of the miboot ISO. I hope this will help you.

Then you have to use Debian Woody or YDL 2.0 .
As I once successfully installed Debian Woody I'd recommand that to you.
But with 16 MB you won't be able to do anything but running for example=20=
a web server.
You should get more RAM, for example from ebay.
Should you want to install now anyway I'd have to create another miboot=20=
ISO for you that also includes a Woody installer image.

May be potato cd will boot?
But I have no Debian potato cd...

than in macos
Thanks

Daniel and Tobias:
Reading your emails back and forth is nothing short of a shame. You both have contributed much and you both have so much more to contribute to the nubus pmac list, so why not burry the hatchet already and quit the bickering? (infighting) If I have misinterpreted your emails please forgive me. But your combined efforts are worth a great deal more to so many of us out here than your abilities to prove one another wrong on some small points. Also, in light of the way things are prograssing in the world today, it behooves the both of you to stick together.
Vito
P.S. If this is the way things are done and you are just taking a rigorous scientific approach then please again forgive my misinterpretation.

Type "dmesg >dmesg.txt" to redirect the output to the file dmesg.txt in the
current path.
However I don't know if that actually works with dmesg.
The file "/var/log/dmesg" contains all of the debug messages during kernel
bootup but that might not be enough.

Still haven't been able to get any internet working with any card in the nubus slot.
Here's the error I get when trying to configure pppoe for either my orinoco wifi or my 3com ethernet:
Modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lob/modules/2.4.27/modules.dep
(no such file or directory)
Thx,
Vito

Hi Vito,
just send me the output of dmesg and I can tell you reliably whether
the kernel recognizes the PCMCIA cards and the trackball correctly.
The mouse button settings are a matter of your x-server setup. You
might have to turn off mouse button emulation.
On my PB1400 I have no problems with my Orinoco Silver - so you
shouldn't have any either.

I keep getting an error in gnome " I've detected another panel already running and will now exit" but it keeps reappearing each time it is closed. I deleted the bottom task bar as I no longer desired to use it.
Any fixes?
Thx,
Vito
P.S. I have not found a solution but see that others on the net have experienced this problem in various linux flavors, only in GNOME.

Still haven't been able to get any internet working with any card in the nubus slot.
Here's the error I get when trying to configure pppoe for either my orinoco wifi or my 3com ethernet:
Modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lob/modules/2.4.27/modules.dep

Hi Vito,
just send me the output of dmesg and I can tell you reliably whether
the kernel recognizes the PCMCIA cards and the trackball correctly.
The mouse button settings are a matter of your x-server setup. You
might have to turn off mouse button emulation.
On my PB1400 I have no problems with my Orinoco Silver - so you
shouldn't have any either.

Good, that is a relief. Words are a poor form of communication without faces.

Thank you very much. I'll make all possible to upgrade my laptop and will write in mailing list again. I have read that woody on powerpc requires 16 mb of ram while woody on i386 require 12 mb of ram :) So, I suppose it will not work on my laptop. Thanks again.

Hi all Thank you all for support About two month ago I wrote in this mailing list about troubles installing debian sarge on my powerbook 5300cs Yesterday my frienad returned from US and brought 56mb ram for me. I installed it in the powerbook immediately and during this night successfully installed debian sarge on it :) I am already quite happy with it, but however have a few postinstall questi= ons 1. I can't use modules of debian default kernel. Should I try to hack /lib/modules/2.4.27-powerpc to rename it to 2.4.27 and hack all files like modules.dep to try to load some kernel modules? For instance I may need to load slip module or may be ppp modules, if ppp doesn't compiled into kernel already. 2. Is it possible to have an x server or sound working? if yes, which keyboard, wich video card with how much memory, and wich monitor should I select when xf86config ? 3. ona the nubus-powermac main page there are information about supported hardware. does it mean that all that drivers already compiled into miboot.image ? 4. to change the kernel I should download nubus-powemac kernel sources, recompile it without modules at all, compile in all drivers I need statically, and copy it to /dev/hda7/ partition in Linux kernels folder? Now I'll try to copy default debian kernel there and boot it, but almost sure that there is no reason to do it, because that kernel will not support nubus :) Thanks :) thanks for all again :) Beste wishes Norayr On 2/5/06, Tobias Netzel <tob...@t-...> wrote: > Hello Norayr, > > at least now you can boot your PB from floppy disk and CD-ROM. > As there is no CD-ROM driver on the boot floppy you need to do a > special trick that at least works with the IDE CD-ROM drives in the > PowerBook 1400 (which is nearly identical to the PB5300). > - insert both the MacOS CD-ROM and the boot floppy and reboot. > - the computer should now boot from the floppy - if not try keeping the > mouse button pressed (after the startup sound) until it boots from the > floppy. > - with the CD-ROM in the drive now there should be a CD-ROM driver > loaded and the CD-ROM should show up on the Desktop. > - now copy the contents of the miboot CD to the harddisk (the miboot > partition needn't be larger than 10 MB - if it's larger create a > smaller one). > - if the harddisk doesn't show up you need to format it with Drive > Setup or reboot to let the finder ask for formatting. > - open the System Folder on the harddisk in order to make it the active > one (it must have the MacOS logo on it). > - remove the floppy and CD from the drives and reboot. > - miboot should boot now. > - follow the instructions in the release notes of the miboot ISO. > > I hope this will help you. > > Tobias > > Am 05.02.2006 um 14:02 schrieb Norayr Chilingaryan: > > > > > Hello! > > > > On 2/5/06, Florian Boelstler <eup...@ar...> wrote: > >> > >> Norayr Chilingaryan wrote: > >> > again, the same issue, I have downloaded iso latest iso image from > >> > sourceforge with wget, and wrote it to cd using cdrecord > >> > [...] > >> > >> I just downloaded the ISO image again (using the link in your message) > >> and compared it with my local copy that I uploaded to SF. > >> The ISO is definitely OK. > >> > >> I have successfully applied that ISO recorded on a CD-R. > >> Though I was using k3b to burn it (using default settings: Extras -> > >> Burn CD image). > >> > >> Florian > >> > > > > Very interesting! > > I can't write it using k3b 0.11.24, because when I opened image > > Tools->CD->Burn cd image > > k3b doesn't check md5 sum check claims "seems not to be a usable > > image" and burn button is disable so it seems impossible to write it > > using k3b :) > > > > What does it mean? > > > > Thanks > > > > Norayr > > > > |

BTW, I already started x-server with windowmaker :) assuming that I have 1024 mb of vide memory, 640x480 mode with 60 hz frequency :) It seems there is no pci cards, and I was in trouble what to write as a BUS id, then just commented that line ;0 Then, I can't do right clicks in windowmaker :) I changed the mouse buttons from config, so now I can run windowmaker menu with left click and select windows with right click :) Anyway, how do I emulate right click with it? Do linux understand ps/2 attached to the ps/2 port? It there compatible protocol?
