Machine: iBook G4 14" Processor: G4/933 Memory: 640MB Root Device: IDE, internal drive Root Size/partition table: n/a 2 & 3 were created by the installer Output of lspci: n/a Base System Installation Checklist: Initial boot worked: [install-safe only] lost video on "install" Configure network HW: [Y] Config network: [Y] Detect CD: [Y] Load installer modules: [Y] Detect hard drives: [Y] Partition hard drives: [Y] created 800k bootstrap partition by hand Create file systems: [Y] Mount partitions: [Y] Install base system: [Y] Install boot loader: [E] yaboot package failed to install into /target/ Reboot: [E] [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Comments/Problems: Video flickered then disappeared on a normal "install," but worked with "install-safe." I tried creating the bootstrap partition both within the partitioner and in mac-fdisk, and the partitioner moved to the next step (install boot loader) which then complained that no partition of type "Bootstrap..." existed (although it did). Also, when I chose to Continue without boot loader from the menu, it informed me about the "missing" bootstrap partition and referred to the Continue without boot loader as the next step (w/o actually doing anything). -- Randall -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
