    I have download PegXMac and I try run MacOS9. It boot from CD without problems. I want to intall it on my harddisk, but under MacOS I don't have any HD. How can I configure Mac partition for MOL?

    Use mac-fdisk in Debian and be careful before you write the partition data. Be sure you know what you're doing with this one. You didn't say if you were running Debian Linux, but I'm assuming that's what you have. Another way to do it is to create the partition with amiga-fdisk. Either way works.

    I have only PegXMac (Knoppix). I created one partition without any filesystem under SCSIConfig. I'm adding it to MOL config file, but longer don't work.

    I tryed amiga-fdisk and Linux, PegXMac work! But MorphOS doesn't boot. OpenFirmware said that I didn't have any ATA device when I add partition by fdisk.

    I don't want to sound harsh, but it seems to me you need to read some of the documentation available for MOL and specifically look at the molrc files in /etc/mol. The questions you are asking can be solved by doing the above.

    You can specify a hard disk partition or hard file and tell MOL to use that as a boot device, or even force use. View the files in /etc/mol.

    It's working. :) I had some fragments MBR on my disk. When I moved RDB a little "up" and "down" MacOS start to work correctly. Thanks!
