i finally took the plunge and decided to install the beta iso onto my powerbook... here is the specs:(from the apple site)
667MHz PowerPC G4 processor with Velocity Engine 256K of on-chip level 2 cache 512MB of PC133 SDRAM -Built-in 2D/3D graphics acceleration through an integrated ATI Mobility Radeon graphics accelerator with AGP 4X support and 16MB of DDR RAM video memory I used drive setup to make 2 partitions, first has os 9.2 and the second is "Unallocated" (ther was no type "Apple Free" so i left it as "Unallocated"). booted into mac os 9.2 and everything worked fine. i restarted with "C" to boot off the mandrake beta1ppc iso and i get: "Welcome to Mandrake Linux PPC!" then a bunch of verticle(sp? up and down:) black lines then the computer proceded to boot into os 9.2... i didn't have a chance to pick the video mode. any help getting past this would be appreciated. i am willing to help in any way possible debug so just ask ;) thanks mike _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
