[ydl-gen] YDL 5.0.2 doesn't start installer on iBook A1005 (should be G3)

[Zhang Weiwu]

Dear all

iBook A1005, the model produced by Apple on 2003 should be a G3 system.
After I boot the system with YDL 5.0.2 Install CD 1 with "c" pressed, I
see the boot prompt. Either press enter directly or type "install text"
followed by enter bring me to a screenful of messages and hangs there
forever. The last part of which says:

Console: color dummy device 80x25
console handover: boot [udbg0] -> real [tty0]
smp_core99_probe:
core99_setup_cpu 0 done

I am not sure if I should type all I saw on the screen to provide enough
information for the people on the list to help me.

The text says "Console" is "80x25" which is not true. The screen shows
the message can hold much more text than that.

Ubuntu 7.04 for Mac installs fine on this iBook.

Help appreciated! Thanks.
