| 00:02.14 | huhlig-linux | there ya go simon |
| 00:02.24 | simonrvn | ok, thanks |
| 00:03.19 | simonrvn | well, let's start off by giving ourselves some leeway, do "setenv auto-boot? false" (no quotes). at least it won't auto boot if we reboot the thing |
| 00:03.45 | huhlig-linux | done |
| 00:04.22 | huhlig-linux | my pc is easier |
| 00:04.29 | Piru | it's for mockos ;) |
| 00:04.48 | simonrvn | OF is loads better than a BIOS |
| 00:04.49 | Piru | of hacking is no apple's concern |
| 00:05.50 | simonrvn | alrighty, stick in that sarge cd, and type boot cd:0 |
| 00:06.17 | huhlig-linux | k |
| 00:06.31 | simonrvn | the OF settings seem to be ok, AFAICT |
| 00:07.24 | huhlig-linux | boot cd:0 |
| 00:07.41 | simonrvn | one of the things i thought of is that the drive might be wirding out for some reason |
| 00:07.47 | simonrvn | weir* |
| 00:07.52 | huhlig-linux | DISK-LABEL: LOAD (noninterposed) not supportedload-size=0 adler32=1 |
| 00:07.59 | huhlig-linux | LOAD-SIZE is too small |
| 00:08.02 | huhlig-linux | ok |
| 00:08.05 | huhlig-linux | 0 > |
| 00:08.14 | simonrvn | aah, seems we need to set load-size |
| 00:08.19 | huhlig-linux | ok |
| 00:09.05 | huhlig-linux | how? |
| 00:09.22 | simonrvn | wait a minute. you said you could boot off the cd right? on that imac? |
| 00:09.47 | huhlig-linux | off the osx cd it gives me an apple then dumps to open firmware |
| 00:09.52 | huhlig-linux | or at least tries to |
| 00:11.00 | simonrvn | that's ^^^^ probably what it's doing behind the scenes |
| 00:11.09 | simonrvn | DISK-LABEL: stuff |
| 00:11.13 | huhlig-linux | ok... |
| 00:11.36 | simonrvn | did you get like this? |
| 00:11.48 | huhlig-linux | not sure what you mean |
| 00:12.14 | simonrvn | you got it as a functional unit, right? |
| 00:12.26 | huhlig-linux | well it was functional before it was delivered |
| 00:12.31 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: know of any irc chats dedicated to linux68k? |
| 00:12.34 | huhlig-linux | then he deleted some files off the drive |
| 00:12.39 | huhlig-linux | and it stopped working |
| 00:12.42 | simonrvn | #linux-m68k iirc |
| 00:13.00 | simonrvn | oh fuck... zapped the wrong thing i bet |
| 00:13.05 | huhlig-linux | prolly |
| 00:13.06 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: no one's really there :/ |
| 00:13.28 | simonrvn | well check, could be #linux-68k too... |
| 00:13.40 | simonrvn | /msg chanserv list *foo* |
| 00:13.57 | huhlig-linux | or just /list |
| 00:14.12 | Piru | huh, /list is evil tho :) |
| 00:14.25 | huhlig-linux | not for newbies it isnt |
| 00:15.05 | Piru | chanserv channel listing etc is one good reason for the service to exist in the first place.. burdening irc server with /list crap was quite stupid :) |

| 00:17.16 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: damn, getting support for linux on the mac 68k is harder than ppc support |
| 00:18.32 | huhlig-linux | simonrvn, any other ideas? |
| 00:20.21 | simonrvn | huhlig-linux: collecting info right now. get ready for your date. i'm self-educatin myself too. i'll point you at links and stuff if you want. just ping me tomorrow or whenever you feel up to it |
| 00:20.25 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: know where I can get a copy of system 7? |
| 00:20.31 | huhlig-linux | ok |
| 00:20.32 | simonrvn | apple's site |
| 00:20.33 | huhlig-linux | not a problem |
| 00:20.47 | huhlig-linux | too many computer parts |
| 00:20.57 | simonrvn | a few things we can try, but if you're in a rush, it can wait ;) |
| 00:21.02 | huhlig-linux | heheh |
| 00:21.07 | huhlig-linux | I will catch you later then man |
| 00:21.11 | simonrvn | ok |
| 00:21.13 | huhlig-linux | thanks for the help |
| 00:21.16 | Piru | macs are simple while you run mockos I'd say |
| 00:21.23 | simonrvn | np. interesting chanllege |
| 00:21.29 | huhlig-linux | Piru, im trying to install macos! |
| 00:21.33 | simonrvn | meh, fuck sppeling |
| 00:21.34 | Piru | oh :-) |

| 00:21.40 | randyg | huhlig-linux: you're welcome to send me any g4 boxes you have if you have too much hardware. :P |
| 00:21.58 | huhlig-linux | randyg, Ive got a mac SE and a mac 6200CD available |
| 00:22.03 | Piru | I would imagine not many regular mac user reinstalls |
| 00:22.08 | randyg | heh |
| 00:22.14 | huhlig-linux | and about 50 PCs |
| 00:22.24 | simonrvn | some of the files here date back to 2002 |

| 00:36.34 | melonman | hi all...anyone know how to turn off the message outputted by the thermal_adt764x module? |
| 00:39.31 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: how do I get the actual OS, not the updates? |
| 00:39.43 | simonrvn | get 7.5.3 or such |
| 00:39.53 | simonrvn | melonman: no |
| 00:40.21 | melonman | simonrvn : r u saying i can't? |

| 00:44.21 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: all disk copy images and require a version of system 7 on the mac |
| 00:45.06 | simonrvn | melonman: no, i'm saying i don't know how. ask the mailing list |
| 00:45.42 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: is there a linux version of diskcopy? or something that does the same thing? |
| 00:46.12 | simonrvn | yes. but not from those things. you need the .imgs. |
| 00:46.49 | simonrvn | hold on... hmmm |
| 00:47.35 | ShadowRage | only the .bin's |
| 00:53.28 | simonrvn | ShadowRage: well, i seem to have misplaced the ones i have already... and sloopy isn't here. lemme see what i can do |
| 00:55.00 | ShadowRage | alright |
| 00:55.01 | ShadowRage | thanks |
| 00:55.16 | ShadowRage | be nice to turn my lc 520 into a workstation |
| 00:56.13 | simonrvn | it might be a little while though, since i need to get MOL working again |

| 02:27.00 | britt_ | I was wondering if somebody could tell me how to put woody on my 3400c/180 |
| 02:27.21 | simonrvn | with floppies to start with |
| 02:27.26 | simonrvn | @sarge install guide |
| 02:27.27 | ravenbird | go see http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ for the install guide. |

| 02:27.43 | simonrvn | use the floppy-2.4 |
| 02:27.52 | britt_ | so I would use a floppy boot, correct? |
| 02:28.00 | simonrvn | to install yes |
| 02:28.02 | britt_ | damn if i dont have a floppy drive |
| 02:28.33 | *** join/#debianppc SeaForth (~SeaForth@c-24-1-126-202.client.comcast.net) |

| 02:28.48 | britt_ | yet? |
| 02:29.04 | britt_ | I didnt know that was in the works |
| 02:29.05 | simonrvn | it's one of the "wishlist" items |
| 02:29.37 | britt_ | i wish that too |
| 02:30.54 | britt_ | can anyone tell me if Gnome would run okay on a 180? |
| 02:31.30 | simonrvn | yeh. though you'd be better off running xfce4 |
| 02:31.44 | britt_ | awesome |
| 02:31.50 | britt_ | you all are a huge help |
| 02:31.55 | britt_ | hmmm... |
| 02:32.15 | britt_ | what if i got a image from a boot sarge floppy image |
| 02:32.25 | britt_ | and created a CD with it using nero or something |
| 02:32.36 | britt_ | would that work or do i need to find a floppy drive |
| 02:33.03 | simonrvn | doesn't matter what you created it with, you still wouldn't be able to boot with it |
| 02:33.22 | simonrvn | IOW, floppy or netboot |
| 02:33.40 | britt_ | netboot? |
| 02:33.44 | britt_ | what is that |
| 02:33.53 | britt_ | I have a woody box ten feet away |
| 02:34.02 | britt_ | hmmm... |
| 02:34.18 | simonrvn | booting from network |
| 02:35.16 | britt_ | that seems almost crazy enough to work |
| 02:35.31 | britt_ | so i wouldnt need a floppy drive with netboot, correct? |
| 02:36.00 | simonrvn | no, but it means configuration on the server side. often it's easier to just borrow some floppy drive |
| 02:40.17 | britt_ | so what would be required on the client side |
| 02:40.29 | britt_ | i'm just a bit confused |
| 02:40.50 | simonrvn | a cooperative client ;) |
| 02:41.39 | britt_ | does anyone else have a 3400c |
| 02:42.03 | britt_ | I was wondering if the CDROM and floppy could be swapped out without rebooting or anything |
| 02:42.14 | simonrvn | the install guide has all the info you'll need to get this going |
| 02:42.32 | simonrvn | dunno. some can. not sure if that one can |
| 02:43.05 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: know if an alps touchpad will work in Xorg on macppc? |
| 02:43.19 | simonrvn | no |
| 02:43.32 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: it has 3 buttons |
| 02:43.48 | simonrvn | i still don't know |
| 02:44.03 | ShadowRage | I'll ask the xorg guys |
| 02:44.11 | ShadowRage | if they're awake tonight |

| 03:04.44 | ShadowRage | simonrvn: coolness |
