YDL on upgraded Powermac 9500 G3-450

[Dominique Werner]

Hi Alan.

I burned the cd with the Toshiba DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive that shipped 
with my Powermac G4 MDD under OS X, I don't have a cd-rw, just the 
Cyberdrive SCSI in the Powermac 9500. I had the same problems mounting 
a cd on the PM 9500 when I had burned a cd with the Matshita CD-RW in 
my old Indigo iMac. BTW, YDL will install just fine on my 40GB drive on 
my MDD, burned with Toast under OS X, as disk image.

Thanks.
