I am trying to install 2.0 on my original PowerBook G3 (3500/Kanga).

I installed BootX, and rebooted into Linux with the X-Windows image file. I
get a black screen with some numbers, then a purple screen comes up and
sometimes the CD-ROM spins for a minute or so. Then I get a black screen and
thats all she wrote.

Setup:
Original PB G3 250MHz
MacOS 9.1
20GB IBM drive with 2 partitions, HFS+ formatted
160 MB memory
No SCSI chain attached.

Any clues?

Eric
