hi all, got a major problemo here, i ran a SUSE Linux live cd on a friend’s mac. it worked quite fine when i tried returning to the mac OS the system gave me the following message “Cannot find Bootable Device”, which is strange cos the Mac OS was running just fine befor i restarted the system for the Linux live cd. the only thing i know i did was direct the Mac to use the CD-ROM as the first bootable device, i did this within the OS itself, i guess that’s what’s giving me problems. please how do i reverse the process.
Mean while i want to install Linux on the Mac, will it affect the files on the system.
im switching between my xubuntu live cd to a Puppy Linux running from a USB FD, i downloaded Wakepup which allows your old pc to boot from your USB device but its a windows Installer, its design for windows and i dont have access to it right now. So how can i create the Boot up floppy under Linux?

Its working as dual boot with WindowsXP: sounds works well on windows but not on linux. the audio device is:
C-Media AC97 audio devices Does redhat don’t support it?
If there is no solution ,suggest me best linux available which can be downloaded ‘for free’ and installed(not live cd) along with windows.If possible tell me how i can get the compatibility list of all available Linux.
That’s all thakyou.

I used to have at bootup the error like reboot and select proper boot device or insert media in boot device. Then I flagged the HD with Gnome (linux partition software live cd) as boot and I had the message NTLDR missing. I booted with the Recovery Console and entered FIXBOOT. It said MBS corrupted. Filesystem FAT!! I had NTFS. Now in gnome it says fat16 and “Unable to read the content of this filesystem”. It can’t tell me how much I used and everything. What can I do to keep my data? I don’t care about windows booting up. I also have knoppix as a live cd to retrieve it but it mounts with weird symbols as filenames and no folders or anything right. PLZ HELP!
