Hi,
This is perhaps a common problem, I don't know.
Machine: SE/30
MacOS: System 7.5.3
Control Panels and extensions: all off except Mode32
When I tried to boot with "extra debugging info" box checked, it reads
>>>
[snip]
Set _boothowto to 0x2.
Bye-bye
[snip]
to...
Set _mac68k_vrsrc_cnt to 0x1
<<<
and froze! I tried a number of times with the same result. What am I
doing wrong?
Misc info:
1)
After building devices, I was not successful in this command: "mount
/dev/sd0a/ /usr"
output:
"/usr: device is busy" (or something like that).
2)
When using the installer, I got an "Error on SCSIRead(), # 5"; and in Mini
shell, when I used the ls command, after .profile was the line "fstat : No
such file or directory" then continued with netbsd. (netbsd didn't show
up the first time I installed it, or thought I did.)
3)
The three set base121, netbsd, etc121 were ungzipped using stuffit
expander with enhancer before using installer to install them. I didn't
know the installer could decompress the sets.
Any help is much appreciated,
Allan
