I took CD drivers from my dad's 7200/90 with 8.6 and got bootx working.  Now 
I have YDL 3.0 installed, though my  monitor was to old to be on the list.  I 
booted it up with no video drivers and it works ok, with an itsy bitsy 
resolution. (It's only a 13 inch monitor anyway, I didn't expect anything 
spectacular.)
Now, how do you simulate a right click with a single button ADB mouse on YDL? 
 In Mac 8.1 you hold control, but not here.  Also the eth0 doesn't load the 
IP (probably because I haven't hooked it up to the network yet) and some cups 
thing takes forever to load on boot.  
       Other than that, it rocks.
Thanx,
ES
