Hi there:
I got a new PowerPC G5 this morning from Apple Store, but could not install the YDL 4.01 on it. My G5 is the model M9590LL/A (http://www.apple.com/powermac/specs.html). Everything is the default config except that I bought 2GB more mem. The Monitor is HP vs17c LCD (and I also connected my NEC MultiSync LCD 1970NX). I inserted the 1st CD of the YDL 4.0.1, restart with "c" pressed. I tried "install-g5", "install-g5 text" and "install-g5-safe", but all with the same issue:
found display : /pci at 0, f0000000/NVDA, Parent at 0/NVDA, Display-B at 1, opening ... done

returning from prom_init
After the above display, the G5 is just stuck foreve! I searched the list and googled, there are some posts abort the similar failures (posted quite some time ago), but I did not see any solution.
Any idea what is wrong on my G5/YDL4.0.1?
Thanks,
-HB
