Re: installing on a 8200



Hello


I am trying to install preR2rc2 on an 8200/120 I got. This should be quite a
bit baster than the 6100.

I'm interested too. I have one of these lying somewhere and waiting for resurrection... The 8200 is a PCI machine, not NuBus, but the processor is the same PPC601. According to Mactracker, it only shipped in Europe, but the hardware specification is the same as 7200, so if somebody experienced Mklinux on the latter machine, let us know.

The cd boots, I partition disks... but the
installer waits for ever at the "Scanning packages...", the kernel is not
frozen, I can switch between consoles and I see no particular errors.

I got the same behavior... could find no solution.


I think I try debian... :-(



Save your time! I tried to install any flavor of linux (including the R1 version of mkLinux, Debian PPC and YDL) on this beast but without success.
If somebody has the solution, please post it!
All the best
Carlo
