Has anyone successfully booted the Fedora beta 7.91 live cd on Pegasos II or can someone give a hint for boot command line ?
The file tree on the cd is following:
etc (dir)
yaboot.conf
ppc (dir)
chrp (dir)
yaboot
mac (dir)
ofboot.b yaboot
ppc32 (dir)
initrd.img vmlinuz
yaboot.conf
ppc64 (dir)
yaboot.conf
bootinfo.txt mapping
sysroot (dir)
squashfs.img
Yaboot says "syntax error ..."
The yaboot.conf:
init-message = "Welcome to Fedora-7.91-ppc"
timeout=6000
image=/ppc/ppc32/vmlinuz
label=linux
initrd=/ppc/ppc32/initrd.img
read-only
append="root=CDLABEL=Fedora-7.91-ppc rootfstype=iso9660 ro quiet liveimg rhgb "
image=/ppc/ppc32/vmlinuz
label=runfromram
initrd=/ppc/ppc32/initrd.img
read-only
append="root=CDLABEL=Fedora-7.91-ppc rootfstype=iso9660 ro quiet liveimg rhgb live_ram"
image=/ppc/ppc32/vmlinuz
label=check
initrd=/ppc/ppc32/initrd.img
read-only
append="root=CDLABEL=Fedora-7.91-ppc rootfstype=iso9660 ro quiet liveimg rhgb check" |

I haven't used an initrd on my peggy, so a bit unsure how to include it if only using the sf.
| Code: |
boot cdrom ppc/ppc32/vmlinuz root=CDLABEL=Fedora-7.91-ppc rootfstype=iso9660 ro quiet liveimg rhgb check
|
if you are lucky, then all the drivers you need until the system file-system has been mounted are built into the kernel, if not you may get quite a lot of error messages. |

| You could try to add the video=radeonfb:1024x768@70 to the options, this would require that the redeonfb is built in, there may be better luck giving some VGA option. I'm noot good at the video modes, so I suggest you use google.com/linux to find the right option. |
