YDL 2.3 Installation on iBook 600mhz

[C.Randolph]

Tried P-RAM zap...  No go...

I'm trying to download the lastest ISO from the net right now.  Maybe
something will work better with it.

Can anyone else shed some light in this - I'm stuck and I am not even out of
the gate...

I realize I misread the question; I was thinking of partitions not
found... You could try one of the standard solutions - reset PRAM.
Helps sometimes :)
