Sounds like the problem with you powerBook, and the batteries is actually a problem with the connection on the logic board where the charger plugs in. If that little port is broken the computer will still function but won't charge. that would also make you PRAM setting not hold. because that batteries aren't getting charges.

Hi James and welcome to the list.

I can't help you with the cd drive but if you're bandwidth-challenged,
I've
got the latest 3 YDL isos (3.0.1) here and could burn them for you if
required.

Regards

Larry Pohl

Larry, thank you for your kind offer, I run a 512k link at home and have
already down'ed and burned the ISO's ready for my YDL installation
experience. Very eager to get it cranking...

I also require new PRAM for the powerbook, doesnt keep date/time, settings, etc. painful... new battery (or two), more ram, and a new HDD, sheesh, add
all that up and it's probably a new ibook... :)
