Re: [Mac-on-linux-users] Ubuntu 7.04 & MOL issu

[Bradley W. <mod...@ya...>]

I had a feeling it might have been a bug.

With using the precompiled MOL, I am running into another issue.  At first I was able (still am) to boot to OS9 from the CD.  The first time or two it had a hard time recognizing any hard drive devices so I stuck in a 40gb slave maxtor drive and did an unformatted partition as /dev/hdb2.  So I went into my config file, put /dev/hdb2 in, and viola, booting into OS9 gave me a message that the hard drive had not been initialized.  It saw it, initialized it, and installed OS 9.1.  

I then decided to toy around with OS 9.0.4 but this time even though the CD booted, it would not recognize any hard drive devices in OS9.  I had not made any changes to the config file at this point.  When that was giving me issues I tried to boot from the OS 9.1 cd again and this time didn't recognize the hard drive either with the disk utility program.

Is there something I'm doing wrong?

It does look like a bug.  However, I know some people are able to boot
OS 9 with the latest version.  Unfortunately MOL's developer Joe
(JoseJX) is away for a while, so we may have to wait until he gets
back to track this down.
