Help! I'm having trouble installing Mklinux pre-dr3 on my G3 desktop |

| Help! I have a G3 desktop 266mhz machine with an internal zip. I recently
downloaded all the files in the pre-dr3 and dr3 folders at
ftp://ftp.mklinux.apple.com. Then I backed
up everything and using pdisk, deleted my macos partition, created a root, swap,
and usr partition, then created another macos partition. All these partitions
are on my internal ide hard disk. Then I restored everything on my mac side and
put all the extensions and control panels in my system folder. After a couple
of tries I realized that I couldn't start the bootstrap.conf file from my
internal ide disk. So i put the mach_servers folder on a zip disk and put in
the lilo.conf, rootdev=/dev/sdf5/
My zip disk is on scsi id 5 and the macos partition is 5.
But I get this error message now that reads "Cannot set 'sd5e' as boot_device"
Can you help me?
If you have a solution please e-mail me at tchnoalien@aol.com
