Not having a 43p-120 around here, I don't know for sure, but looking through the 43p-140 service manual, which came with the machine, at the end of chapter six (Loading the system diagnostics) is a summary table of boot options and control keys. You may want to try to find that and look for a key that selects the Open Firmware command line. Is the 120 a Micro-Channel bus machine or does it have a pci bus?

I tried this, as stated in the yellowdoglinux rs6000 installation webpage, but with
no luck.

It seems that the F8 key don't work in the 43p-120.

Bye!

Thanks!
