Hello,
I did'nt finded how boot my rs/6000 43P 120 in the users/guide manual with
holding the F8 key.
The entire 43P works correctly when I boot AIX on the first hard disk.
When I boot, I get the display white with icons and the title : PowerPc on
the screen center. Then the diskette Zimage works 10-15s and the screen
becomes black and nothing.
Has anyone out there had any success installing yellowdog on a 43P ?
