[Pearpc-devel] Problems booting Fedora Core 4 (PPC)

[Jens v. d. H. <ma...@vd...>]

I seem to have problems to get PearPC boot Fedora Core 4 (PPC) from  
Image File
or real CDRom. I remember people having successfully installed it but  
I cannot find
info how they did it. Find attached PearPC's output. I wonder why it  
cannot
open the file '/ppc/mac64/yaboo'. I checked if it existed on the CD  
and it is
in that exact path. Strange thing. Any ideas ?
