Hello, I need some 'MOL' help. Basically, I have a PBook g4 with os X on one partition and hoary on the other. I am new to linux. I have downloaded

mol-0.9.70.tgz The complete source as a tar archive.

from the http://www.maconlinux.org/download.html website but I don't know what to do from there. Basically I would like to boot to ubuntu always and then just open the mac inside ubuntu when necessary.

Any help would be great.

Thanks, Ben

Hi Ben,

Have a look at the ubuntu wiki. I recommend using the method on the end of the page, because Tiger support isn't present in the version of mol you downloaded. The link to the page is:
