[ID/PROM] <Error> can't open boot file
1) I use Window Server 2003.
2) Downloaded and installed "pearpc-0.4-win32-jitc.zip".
3) Downloaded MAC boot cd from "http://www.charlessoft.com/"
4) Converted .dmg(200kb) to .iso(4096KB) by UltraISO.
4) Change "ppccfg" file as follow,
ppc_start_resolution = "800x600x15"
ppc_start_full_screen = 0
key_compose_dialog = "F11"
key_change_cd_0 = "none"
key_toggle_mouse_grab = "F12"
key_toggle_full_screen = "Alt+Return"
prom_bootmethod = "select"
prom_env_machargs = "-v"
cpu_pvr = 0x000c0201
memory_size=0x8000000
pci_ide0_master_installed = 1
pci_ide0_master_image = "d:\pearpc-6gib.img"
pci_ide0_master_type = "hd"
pci_ide0_slave_installed = 1
pci_ide0_slave_image = "d:\BootCD_0.6.4.iso"
pci_ide0_slave_type = "cdrom"
pci_3c90x_installed = 0
pci_3c90x_mac = "02:a2:a2:a2:a2:a2"
pci_rtl8139_installed = 0
pci_rtl8139_mac = "02:a2:a2:a2:a2:a2"
pci_usb_installed = 1
nvram_file = "nvram"
5) Command line, use "ppc ppccfg".
6) Then,
1 bootable partition found:
0. show all (even unbootable)
1. partition 1 of 'cdrom0' (unknown/Apple_HFS)
Your choice (ESC abort) : 1
7) Aborted,
[ID/PROM] <Error> can't open boot file
I tried to use different boot CDs(Panther, Jaguar, Puma), same error.
Please give me some helps, thanks.

I can boot right now, but no network
After clicking 'network' icon, no card can be recongnized and cannot add new one. WHY
Hi,
Does this mean you solved you original problem and now are in OSX?
If so, to get networking going, you need to enable one of the fake network cards in the config.
But first, you should install OpenVPN (when installing, only the TAP-device is needed). look here: http://openvpn.net/download.html
Second, I believe, for windows as host, you should to enable the realtek card in the config file.
so set: pci_rtl8139_installed = 1
If you start PearPC it will look for the TAP device you just installed, and through that, the network card will then show up in OSX under networking and you can configure it there. (If the realtek doesn't show, try the other card in the config file)
Please also check the pci_rlt8139_mac and pci_3c90x_mac entries. In my config these are:
pci_rlt8139_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:35"
pci_3c90x_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
It doesn't really matter, but it's best to keep the different, and not the same as in your config file.
Good Luck,
Cat_7

Actually, I had downloaded OpenVPN 2.0beta, 2.0.7, 2.1.4beta. But on one works
The config part is as follow,
pci_3c90x_installed = 0
pci_3c90x_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:34"
pci_rtl8139_installed = 1
pci_rtl8139_mac = "de:ad:ca:fe:12:35"
I try to replace "de:ad:ca:fe:12:35" to the 'real' mac address of this machine and the vitual address of win32-tap driver. When boot PPC, seems mac os always cannot find any network device, why?
I confused which address I need use? (I use mac os 10.2.4, any trick patch I need add about this version?)

Ah....
OSX 10.2 only networks with PearPC 0.2!
And you don't want to use that, speedwise.
If you are feeling lucky, there is a tutorial on this board describing the problems in getting OSX 10.2 to network with PearPC 0.2

GEEZ! Why Pear0.4 do not support OSX 10.2.x? No make any sense...
You may right, I feel the OSX cannot recognize both 2 network cards in my 2 computers. Always a read-only greyed 'Build-in Ethernet' listed in the 'network' dialog box.
Looks I had to download a 10.3.x version ......
Actually I just want to emulate a Sarafi, any express way?

If you have a somewhat compatible PC, you could try installing OSX Intel on it directly.

Just so you'd know, I have successfully networked 10.2 with PearPC 0.4pre. I used the 3c90x driver from here.
I GOT.
Thanks for your help. I download another 10.3.x version and turn the network on.
