Paul,

It looks like you need a more recent version of YDL. Even with MacOS 
X journaling disabled, new OS X does something to HFS+ that stock YDL 
can't handle. You can either download new ISOs, or if you like, send 
your CDs back and we'll send out a replacement set that is newer.

Here's the link for those ISOs:

Let me know which you would like to do. I may just try to ship you a 
newest set. You can give the older set to a friend. Would that be 
best? "

Thank You,
  Tech Support

	My original message:

	I just attempted to install 3.0.1 and got an unhandled 
exception error at the step where I choose to use Disk Druid to do 
the partitioning. (Same error if I choose to do the partitioning 
using the advanced user method.  I don't want to try automatic 
partitioning.)

	The setup is a DP 500 MHz Mac using OS 10.3.2 (journaling 
enabled).  The yellowdog installation is being attempted on a second 
20 GB internal ATA hard drive in which OS 10.3.2 is on the second 
half of this drive and the yellowdog installation is being attempted 
on the first half which has been prepared as described in the 
Companion to Installing booklet as an untitled free space partition.

	Is there any obvious reason why this shouldn't work?  Any 
suggestions much appreciated.

	Paul

P.S.  Last lines of error message are:
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/fs set.py", line 61 in fileSystemTypeGet 
return fileSystemTypes [key]
key error: Apple HFS
