Morphos on CUBE G4?

[Golem!dk]

Hi I was excited about the recent announcement of Morphos Being able to run on all G4's.

You misread, supported models are listed in the release notes.

I got an old CUBE G4 and follewed all the partition info correctly but when I insert the Morpos boot cd I get a white screen and the following message:

Quark/Openfirmware
console failed

What does this mean can anybody help?

Your mac is not supported, see above.

Luckily you got the names right next to the system ID, and of course the Cube was newer sold as a PowerMac, that name is reserved for their tower models, you've also got sites like EveryMac.com to help you figure out what you've got.

Errr. It was sold as Powermac Cube G4. Even the manual says so. The sale pitch was "Power of a Tower Powermac in a small cube." Sadly it is a bit of shit computer . Hard to expand and very hard to reach its ports (you have to turn it over, and then it turns of ...)

Right, but anyway... models supported are listed on the MorphOS website, they seem fairly affordable from what I have seen.
