YDL3.0 install on Umax Apus 2000

[mauro]

I think it would be better you start the installation using a previous bootX
version as 1.1.3,(search it with google) that works better with oldies..
Then you can choose, (in the boot loader) the kernel version finishing with
the world "BOOT"(one of the two founded on the "boot" folder of the install
cd) that you previously should have placed on the mac system folder(named
Linux Kernels) and check ramdisk.image buton... That should start up the
"anaconda" graphic installer that will drive you in a very easy way throug
the installation...
