Rs6000 7043-240


I'm trying to install Mandrake Linux on this IBM server however like most I cannot seem to get the machine to boot from the CD. It sounds like a boot disk is the way to go however I have yet to get any of them to work. I have googled it and found various sites, none however have helped. Does anyone know where to obtain a boot disc for PPC that will work? Or maybe have an idea that I havn't tried yet? Thanks

Currently I'm trying to get the Mandrake 10.1 boot disk to work by manually booting it through the open firmware. However I don't know what file to run.
