Problems booting for the first time, Titanium PowerBook
Hopefully I don't iterate things that have been said already.
I've installed 2.2.r5 from the net, following the appropriate
instructions. In order to be albe to install to begin with, I remember
adding 'novideo' to yaboot.conf in the installation files (I downoladed
the floppy images).
I then installed debian without problems to a new partition, went very
smooth. I also wrote the appropriate files to the bootstraps partition
(as per the instruction document), and the systems boots, as it should,
with debian by default.
However, I don't see a thing other than a white screen with output
containing the words '128' and 'ati'. I don't remember the exact
wording, I could look this up if it helps.
So, I suppose I'd have to change the yaboot.conf file in the bootstrap
partition, so that I can see what I'm doing. I wouldn't know how to do
this, as it isn't mounted to begin with.
Another thing I tried was to configure the yaboot.conf when generated
using mkofboot --boot. Didn't work.
Any feedback would be appreciated as I look forward to logging on to my
new system and configuring it.
Thanks
