Hi Paul!

Norberto earlier posted the following link regarding this topic:

For the sake of completeness however, the link below should also be included as part of that same discussion:

Consider also what sloppy shared regarding the kernel used for YDL 4.0; support for some OW Macs were left out.
This could mean that you may have to build your own kernel or otherwise modify the YDL 4.0 kernel by adding specific modules supporting the OW machine you have.  I'm sure sloppy or another could recommend something easier.

It is unfortunate that the necessary information which could be useful is spread out over a variety of emails and comments which are too easy to miss.  As usual, the victory of achieving one's goals goes to the most astute.

Good Luck...

I've been following this thread with some interest, as I have an old beige G3, 
and I'd like to get YDL running on it.  I also would be interested in seeing 
an OW install guide to YDL 4.0.1, or even just a list of tips to make the 
install a little easier going.  My other alternative would be to install 
Debian, which I use at work on an x86 machine, but like many here, I would 
really prefer to use YDL.

 That would explain why setting up YDL 4.0 to run with BootX on my old
233MHz G3 was so difficult!

i havnt looked at this thread too closely, but will check on installing
4.x on an OW again, and make a new install guide if need be.

sloopy.

 Please consider doing so sloppy, there seems to be a concerted effort
(amongst various users) to go beyond these and other design limitations. 
The information you have and know of, is not easily found.  If these
details were more readily available (and people knew to regularly reference
at that place) I'm sure some efforts (such as where this and other threads
seem attempt exploring or working at) would not have begun in the first
place.
