A bit of information appears to be missing. Do you mean to state that
you attempted to install YDL 4.1 onto an external firewire drive
connected to a Mac mini?
Question: Did you install YDL 4.1 onto the firewire drive using the
first install CD? Did you use the command, when you were prompted for
an input: install firewire? This command installs a kernel
specifically for use where YDL will be booted from firewire drives. No
question mark included, of course.
I am unfamiliar with the menu you are speaking of.
I am familiar however with a series of disk icons which appear after
the option key is depressed just before the Mac boots up. If there is
a bootable drive present a symbol of the OS it uses will appear. YDL
will have the symbol of the famous Linux tux (the penguin) appear
sitting along the lower right side of the disk. After YDL has been
installed properly onto the firewire drive; the firewire symbol will
appear together with the tux.

Hello list.
I have installed Yellow Dog 4.1 on a firewire hdd without problems (on
a mac mini). After the first boot I held the "option key" for boot
menu but there was no firewire disk in the menu.
Where is my fault?
Thanks,
Carsten.
