Grub2 test on iMac G3 |

Hello,
I test the Grub2 on iMac G3, following the howto available at http://
grub.enbug.org/TestingOnPowerPC .
Here are some comment i wish useful :
* even if i set boot-device to hd,2:grubof.modules, i have to
manually type "boot" at the OF prompt to have grub loaded. else, the
screen keep gray.
* as grub version is 1.93, i fill grub.cfg with
timeout 5
menuentry "Linux" {
linux (hd,2)/boot/vmlinux root=/dev/hda3
initrd (hd,2)/boot/initrd.img
}
But then, i have a kernel panic because it do not find root.
I can boot linux with the (great) grub console by typing :
grub> linux (hd,2)/boot/vmlinux root=/dev/hda3
grub> initrd (hd,2)/boot/initrd.img
grub> boot
* The menu does not use the whole screen, only the top left corner.
That's strange.
Wish that helps.
Étienne.
