Trying to Install YDL on G3 Beige

[Lola Lee]

I'm trying to install Yellow Dog Linux 3.0.1 on my G3 desktop 
machine.  The problem is when I select the local CDROM as the 
installation method, I get "The Yellow Dog Linux CD was not found in 
any of your cdrom drives. Please insert the YDL cd and click OK to 
retry".

Backing up a bit, I had an 160GB hard drive installed, made it the 
master drive.  The original drive is now the slave drive, as is the 
CD ROM drive.  The newer drive is partitioned into 2 parts, the 
larger part being reserved for YDL.  I have OS 9 installed.  It is 
hooked up to the wireless router (this is probably important as a way 
to solve this problem).

Following the "A Companion to Installing YDL 3.0", right now I'm on 
page 4, step 12 for the old world rom systems.  While mousing through 
the screen options, I noticed that in addition to the local cdrom, 
there's three options - ftp, nfs image, and http.  If I were to put 
select one of these options, say, ftp, what would go into the line 
for ftp site name and yellow dog directory?

I would prefer to install off the cd rom, if possible, because I 
found that it took a long time just to create these cds.  So, what 
could be the reasons for the installer not recognizing the cd rom (I 
watched the lines of text that scrolled up when I went into Linux via 
BootX and it definitely did read in information about the cd drive)? 
And how to fix this?  Thanks for your help!
