Hey Lawless, Progress!!!

OK, so I installed windows 7 Beta, and then immediately booted into my Lawless PPC distro. Once installed I booted into the OS via the hard drive, which I can only do if i select change boot order and select the hard drive. It won't boot unless I do so, it gives me an error saying can't locate boot/Plist. I need to fix that so I can just push power and let it boot. When I booted it told me that my broadcom wireless card kexts arent working and need to be reinstalled. But the touchpad and keyboard built into the laptop were working. When I rebooted they weren't working anymore.

So I love the distro, worked great, I just need help with a couple of things

The laptop is a HP dv2125nr

Problems:

1. I can't boot directly into the HD, I have to press escape at first of boot to change boot device order, then I have to select the HD. I want to be able to power on the laptop and let it boot into the OS.

2. Built in touchpad and keyboard aren't working, I want to be able to use them, obviously.

3. Mini-PCI Broadcom Wi-Fi card doesn't work. Any suggestion on kexts to install?

I will keep you updated on my progress. Hope to hear some help soon.

Thanks everyone, and especially you LawlessPPC!!! Great distro!!!
