 Well, I finally had a chance to install YDL 2.1. I want to start off by
saying congrats to Terra Soft on a job well done yet again. This is by far
the best bang for buck I have ever gotten on for an operating system.
Thanks for all the hard work.

 A pointer to anyone who does dumb things like I do every now and
again:

 If you want to install YDL and not have MacOS on your drive, you can
safely remove any partitions that are of type 'hfs' or hfs+, but *don't*
delete the driver partitions. I did that and it took quite a while to get
the machine to find a boot sector on the drive. Not fun.

Cheers,

Chris
