[Mac-on-linux-users] MOL failing to boot

[Florian F. <flo...@te...>]

Hi,

I have a small problem with MOL, and though reading lists about people havi=
ng=20
similar problems, it does not seem to help. My host is an iBook G4 running=
=20
gentoo 2.6.23-gentoo-r2 kernel modified to load the mol module=20
(handle_mm_fault symbol not exported) and mol-0.9.72.1 :

Here is my partitionning :=20

/dev/hda
        #                    type name                 length   base     (=

And my molrc.osx, relevant part of the configuration :

blkdev:                 /dev/hda        -boot -force -whole

startmol -X fails with  :

I have no idea why the bootloader cannot start osx within MOL, any idea is=

welcome.

Thank you very much in advance for your answer.
