Question

The darwin image only opened in my Mac after I removed the .gz extention from it. Looks like its not a valid .gz format or something.

And you dont need Darwin to partion the HD image. Follow my guide instead.

if x200 is 512 mb's of ram, what would 1024 mb's of ram be in binary?

What the H***?!? What are you talking about warez and crap? The only help you specifically asked me for AFTER you asked ME for warez is to post my config file to you... That was on ,what, Friday? I do have a life other that this and other forums and this ALPHA software!

I don't appreciate this kind of attitude in the least. If you have a specific question aimed at me, ask it. I have gotten this to install with Jaguar on 2 different computers. I will throw in what little I know about it. But please keep your name calling to yourself.

A little confused,

Jon

when i got done installing, i go to turn off the slave so it'll boot the hard drive first and i'm told the hard drive isn't bootable.  more like none of the partitions on the hard drive are bootable.  any ideas?

did you try swapig the boot drive in darwin s

et drive 3 - make it drive 2

or did you boot up PPC in selet mode and choose the bootable drive ?

You don't need to download darwin to swap the drive from 3 to 2 to make it bootable. If you have "prom_env_machargs = "-s"" and boot from the CD you'll get dumped at the prompt, from there you can change the partitions. There's a decent guide on eMaculation:

Steps 10-19 refer to making it bootable without Darwin.

I agree.

I watched this thread since page 1 and have never seen you mention warez even once.

Just ignore Wildgate. It's not nice to make false accusations :blink:

i downloaded the 10.3.3 update from apple's site, created an iso with the dmg file on it, copied the dmg file from the cd to the desktop once the mac os was running, and now have mounted the dmg and started the install. i'm thinking the problem is the size of the hard drive image but i'm not sure. anyone know of a way to get around this?

    • Bluesky COO warns social media regulations could destroy competition from small startups by Paul Hill Fears that increasing government control of social media risks regulatory capture by the biggest social media firms were raised again recently. Bluesky’s chief operating officer said in an interview that social media bans for children and tighter regulations for social media firms risk creating a world where there are only a few social media platforms run by companies with the deepest pockets. Regulations on social media firms have been very lax since they appeared for mainstream users in the 2000’s. This gave Meta, Snapchat, and Google time to build up their user bases and get entrenched, with Meta being the most successful. Now that Meta has succeeded, it has been attempting regulatory capture. By pushing for more regulations of social media, Meta hopes to make it more difficult for rivals to challenge it. For its part, it doesn’t need to worry about the cost of regulation because it has a lot of money to spend, whereas startups do not. Speaking to CNBC, Rose Wang, Bluesky’s chief operating officer, said: “I support the protection and the safety of youth, the question that we have then is at what cost, because essentially what I’m scared of is in the long term, we’re headed to a world where there’s about three to five platforms, and extreme heavy regulation of those platforms, and basically the whole compliance teams of these platforms are 10 times the size of our entire team. So, basically, we’re living in a world where it’s almost impossible for smaller entrants to come in and build healthier spaces. These platforms have led to a place where the bottom line is the thing that drives what they do... so I understand why governments have to step in and regulate, because the platforms have done nothing right.” She said that while she is not against regulation, there needs to be more channels between the small to mid-sized players and regulators to help protect them. She says that big tech players, on the other hand, “who we know are circumventing regulation,” need to be regulated. Essentially, the Bluesky position is one of nuance, rather than absolutes. While Bluesky’s proposal may preserve competition in the social media space, it still doesn’t address the massive privacy implications these age verification measures introduce, such as handing over sensitive identity documents to access age-gated content.
