OldWorld Install--keyboard failure

[Philip]

Hey

Same thing happened to me (YDL 3, but I could navigate with some F# keys. I
struggled to get past only to resolve it by adding another scsi drive. I
then reaalise that my Apus 3000 was not on the working list. Having 4 macs I
swopped everything to a 8500. Then I got as far as a good GUI stepping
through the wizard, now I get as far as specifying partition mode before I
get a crash. I take it one or more of the drives is not compatable with the
setup.

to find out that I was trying to install YDL3 with a ramdisk from YDL2.3 Try
to locate the right ramdrive from the bootx in your systemfolder
