Any suggestion how do I get a PowerMacintosh 7600/132 to boot from CD?
Section 5.2 of the installation manual (woody) suggests holding
command,option,shift, and delete while starting up. This doesn't seem to
work for me.
Oldworld powermacs will not boot from Debian CDs, because a free-software
version of the needed CD driver is not available. You should be able to
boot from a floppy, then install from the CD.
I added a note to this effect in the manual.
