OK< I got my Wallstreet booted.

I installed a brand new 40gb hard drive. I installed OS9 on a 400mb partition and installed bootX. That's all that partition has on it.

I left the remaining 38gb untouched.
Now, I run mac-fdisk, and here are the partitions it shows me:

Quote:
/dev/hda
# type name length base ( size ) system
/dev/hda1 Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 ( 31.5k) Partition map
/dev/hda2 Apple_Driver43 Macintosh 54 @ 64 ( 27.0k) Driver 4.3
/dev/hda3 Apple_Driver43 Macintosh 74 @ 118 ( 37.0k) Driver 4.3
/dev/hda4 Apple_Driver_ATA Macintosh 54 @ 192 ( 27.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda5 Apple_Driver_ATA Macintosh 74 @ 246 ( 37.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda6 Apple_FWDriver Macintosh 200 @ 320 (100.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda7 Apple_Driver_IOKit Macintosh 512 @ 520 (256.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda8 Apple_Patches Patch Partition 512 @ 1032 (256.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda9 Apple_HFS untitled 819200 @ 1544 (400.0M) HFS
/dev/hda10 Apple_Free Extra 77319416 @ 820744 ( 36.9G) Free space

Block size=512, Number of Blocks=78140159
DeviceType=0x0, DeviceId=0x0
Drivers-
1: @ 64 for 23, type=0x1
2: @ 118 for 36, type=0xffff
3: @ 192 for 21, type=0x701
4: @ 246 for 34, type=0xf8ff


I hit c to create a partition, enter 3p for swap space, 512M for length, and swap for the partition name, and here's where the error comes in. Here it is:

Quote:

requested base and length is not within an existing free partition



Here is the information on the hard drive:

No errors in dmesg that pertain to the hard drive.





Now what?

3p means the 3rd partition. That's not a free partition. Use 10p since that's the free partition on your drive.

That got it! Thanks!!

Now, a new problem...

Whenever I emerge gentoo-sources, I get this:

Quote:
QA Notice: awk in global scope: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.14-r7


It does this for r1 through r7 and fills SEVERAL pages with this!


What gives?

OK, I let the system run for about 45 minutes with this message, and it finally grabbed r8 for me...

I now have another issue to worry about...

When I boot, I get the following errors:

Quote:
cardmgr[5786]: watching 2 sockets
cardmgr[5786]: could not adjust resource: IO ports 0x1000-0x1fff: Input/output error
cardmgr[5786]: could not adjust resource: memory 0x90000000-0x9003ffff: Input/output error


It's not a huge deal, but some cards won't work in it.


Any ideas out there?

Take a look at /etc/pcmcia/config.opts and set your PCMCIA settings correctly, that should fix the problem.

Thanks. I'll try that in a little bit...

Right now I've got another problem that has shown up.

In dmesg, I get pages and pages of this:

Quote:
evbug.c: Event. Dev: adb2:2.c3/input, Type:0, Code: 0, Value 0
evbug.c: Event. Dev: adb2:2.c3/input, Type:1, Code: 50, Value 1
evbug.c: Event. Dev: adb2:2.c3/input, Type:0, Code: 0, Value 0
evbug.c: Event. Dev: adb2:2.c3/input, Type:1, Code: 18, Value 0


And so forth...

Any ideas on what this is?

I've adjusted my /etc/pcmcia/config.opts correctly, but I'm still getting this error.

I can't use my wifi card until I get this working.

Any more ideas?
