Hi,
I've recently (Sep 04 2004) downloaded the Fedora development boot iso and tried it on my old PowerMac 7300. After burning the image, I've copied the kernel and ramdisk to HD and tried booting through BootX.
The system produces some output on the display but does not start any form of installation procedure - it just sits there.
Where does it get to? What messages occur?
Is this kernel/ramdisk version (2.6.8-1.541) supposed to work on OldWorld Macs? If yes, let me know, so that I can file a bug report.
It's not really something we've tried and tested. It may be worth looking at if YDL uses seperate configs for old/new world if not then it may just be something we're missing. IIRC the kernel for oldworld/newworld on ydl should be the same.
