Don,
I ran into the same situation with the YDL install CD. Looks like bad QC
from whoever cuts Terra Soft's CDroms. I looked at the CD from within
Virtual PC, and found I had a 'Juno Online' distribution!
Spent all night downloading a replacement. But now the ramdisk.image will
not boot the installer on my Beige G3, even though CS 1.1 is currently
installed there. I get a kernel check message about srr1?
Regards,
john
