I want to boot from a most recent official release of Debian on a new iMac G3. In Open Firmware, I type boot cdrom or equivalently boot cd:,\\:tbxi and I get the error message: load-size=1000 adler32=edd16114 unrecognized Client Program Format.
my boot-device line reads: boot-device cd: hd:,\\tbxi I don't know if there's something wrong about this hd:,\\tbxi that remains. I can hear the cd-rom turning after typing boot cdrom, so something's happenin'.. What's wrong? is it that I can't use the slink version on an iMac? (can I get the potatoe on a cd-rom?) thanks a bunch, Philip
