Just tried to install it but didnt work. I got to where you select the HDD, and it is not displayed in there. Needless to say with OSX I did not have any of these problems.

:(
You could try couple of things:
1. Check that the devices are correctly jumpered for master/slave. MorphOS might be pickier about this.
2. You could try different 80-pin ATA cable. Mac OS X might be able to downgrade the DMA modes in case of flaky cable.
3. You could try the HDD connected to a different ATA connector. Many Power Mac models have multiple ATA controllers.

Also we'd be interested to hear the exact model of the system, full showconfig and pciscan verbose output.

Just upgraded my Pegasos II from MorphOS 2.5 to 2.6. Worked like a charm, and it's great!

Excellent work MorphOS Team!


Cheers,

Very nice. Now I need to find a $1 Radeon card to flash with a compatible Mac BIOS and my free Power Mac will be ready to go.

Ok problem solved.

Basically the original owner of my PowerMac removed the jumper from the HDD... worked ok in oSX but MOS didnt like that. I put a jumper on Master, now its perfect.

Yes, I think this Birthday I'll pick up a dual cpu G4 and invest in another coy of MorphOS.

Why? I have no idea, but I'm excited about it!!!

This is probably in the release notes which I have not gone through, but I will risk the question, anyway.  Does MorphOS support dual CPUs?
