Hi all,

Since I got the CDs, I'm trying to install this - to date to no avail.

Machine = PowerMac 9600 with NerwerTech G4/400
RAM = 224 MB
Drives are formatted for Linux/MacOS - YDL 1.2.1 (Champion Server is running!)
Video = ATi Rage Orion 16 (MB)
Screen = KDS 19"

When I boot the vmlinux from the YDL 2.0 CD, I get the first few
bright lines, the last line saying "booting ..." and nothing happens
afterwards.
It sits there for a few minutes and eventually reboots.

What do I have to tell it to show the penguin and start the booting process?
It worked just fine with CS 1.2.1 but I want to have the accelerated
XFree server (4.x.x) for the ATi card and that needs YDL 2.x.

I'm trying this since May this year to no avail ...

Regards,
Chris
