[ydl-gen] YDL 4.1 beta install report

[Mark Jaffe]

I downloaded the 4 iso images, and burned them to CD. Installation  
took place on my Pismo G3/400 laptop which has a 60 Gb hard-drive  
partitioned with OS X 10.4, and OS 9.2 with an additional 12 Gb ext3  
fs. (Ubuntu is currently on the ext3)

Booting the CD brought me to the basic install screen; I hit return  
for the default install. I then ended up in the text installer, where  
I was asked for my install language and keyboard type, then which  
install media; I chose CD ROM drive. I was then informed that there  
was no driver for the device (original Apple media-bay CD/DVD drive)  
and would I like to search for one? The select dialog showed only a  
Firewire driver.

I was unable to proceed further on the laptop.

Installing to the G3/450 B&W system was a different experience.  
Despite having an after-market no-name 52x CD-RW, it went straight  
into the graphical installer, and proceeded through all install steps  
as I remembered from earlier installations. No problems here!
