oops. . . the "ydl-cs1.1-tastymorsels.img" cd is the one i meant. . .once
you download and burn it, the name is "CS-1.1-update", so i was confused.
i'm not sure if it will work. i think it depends on if the kernel it has on
it is compatible. . .it uses yaboot, so as long as your machine has open
firmware that part will work, but i'm not sure of if the kernel om the cd is
compatible. (it's the one modified for the UMA machines, "vmlinux.ibook.9")
anyone?
