I had similar issues on older YDL revisions. I did not find a way to do
a headless install, (An install for a headless system: Yes) 
 
For the Headless install some items in the nvram had to be changed.

Hola all,

 

Has anyone tried to do a headless install of 5.0.1 on an Xserve yet?  I
have a dual G5 that I'm trying to put 5.0.1 on and it's giving me fits.
I get to the boot prompt, but it shows no kernels to boot from or to
install from.  I get this no matter what I type at the boot prompt:

 

:2,/vmlinux, Unable to open file, Invalid device

 

I've check summed my downloads, but I may re-burn disc 1 to see if it
makes a difference.
