I am trying to run a beige G3 mac (powerpc) with only linux on it (no mac-os) which rools out bootX if I can. I was wondering what was the best way to boot the system (hda2). I tried to make a rescue disk, but was unsuccesful thus far as I don't have much installed and I can't boot into the system properly. Since quik won't work on these machines, is there any way to make it boot of the harddisk, and/or create a rescure disk either from it or from an intel based system, or if there is somewhere I can download an image? All I have installed on it is the basic instellation from floppys and the base system. I tryed booting of the rescue disk from the instellation set, but the disket itself isn't bootable, I then tried first booting the boot-floppy-hfs and instead of inserting the root disk to insert the boot disk. It started up but I got the message the couldn't open display, please enter kernel option init= (or something like that). That happened right after the usb started up, and the machine doesn't have usb. Thanks.
