Hi,

i am trying to install yellow dog on my ibook2001 (15g/600/128). after creating 4 partitions (boot,osx,swap and root) and booting of the cd yaboot loads the kernel and starts the installer. After prompting me to select an installation type (default/custom), it then proceeds to fail with error "could not load cd/dvd please insert". I have tried re-burning the image iso all to no avail. The partitions are all HFS (except for osx parition which is HFS+)...

has anyone had similar problems, or succesfully installed linux on a iBook2001?

cheers

ben...
