Bug#375422: Boot failure with kernel 2.6.15 on G4

[Rick Thomas <rbthomas55@pobox.com>]

Sorry to take so long to get back on this.

I just did an install on this machine, and all went well.  I used the  
Lenny RC1 "netinst" CD.  Everything worked according to specs.  I was  
even able to install X11 and Gnome at full 1280x1024 resolution --  
it's not blindingly fast, but it works OK.

I think you can close this bugreport.

Enjoy!

Rick
