I recently acquired a dual 2.7ghz G5 and have since been attempting to install YDL version 6.0 (with little success). My plan is to dual boot linux / osx.
My problem, I cannot begin the install process. The machine will boot to the optical drive and load the bootloader. From there, everything goes downhill. I arrive at the "check media" screen (it verifies the disk integrity successfully). Once I proceed to the actual installer the computer suffers horrific graphical issues The screen image becomes distorted, warped etc. At this point I am unable to proceed. I found a tip online which stated that I should lower the monitor resolution to 800x600. However, as soon as I get to the check media screen the monitor reverts to its native resolution (see below) My Hardware: dual 2.7ghz G5 PPC 2 GB DDR SDRAM (two 1 GB PC3200U-30330 sticks) ATI Radeon 9650 (AGP with 256 megs vram) 20 inch apple cinema display _______________________________________________ yellowdog-newbie mailing list [email protected] http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-newbie
