Just to make sure it's not the problem, set the clock back to 266 &
try it again. How reliable is the system with the clock cranked up
like that? My beige 266 just turned 5 last week & I wouldn't mind
getting a little extra oomph out of it. Then again, with G4 upgrade
processors at less than $200, I might just go that route.

I used to run YDL on my beige G3/266; I set the video parameters
in BootX & it gave no trouble. I wasn't able to change resolutions
in Linux, but I really didn't care about that.
