Re: iBook FireWire Video Problem

The problem that that I do not get yaboot prompt. Just after few seconds 
of loading, Debian hangs with black screen and few blue vertical lines. 
In LinuxPPC, I can press TAB on startup in order to select boot method 
(e.g. safe video). Is there some kind of shotcut to stop yaboot? I have 
looked at installation instruction, but did not found any mention of this 
kind of boot interrupt possibility.

2.2r2 CD is OK for sure because I booted iMac and G4/400 with Gigabit 
Ethernet without any problem.


with best regards
