Is there any way to get a battery gadget for the shelf/iBar for laptop
users?

New to Yellow Dog Linux, long time Debian user.
Target: Sony PS3, 60GB, Logitech cordless keyboard & mouse.
System software is Version 1.90, current at time of install.
Installation source is Terrasoft DVD dated July 11, 2007.

Problem: Installation fails, apparently at or very near end - messages
suggest the installer is trying to write the boot record.

Stack summary shows:
(top)
/usr/lib/anacond/gui.py line 1279 handleRenderCallback
self.currentWindow.renderCallback()

(bottom)
/sr/lib/booty/bootloader.py line 1768 write bootDevice=rootDevice
Unbound Local Error: local variable 'rootDevice' referenced before
assignment

The "save to floppy option" doesn't work, and I was unable to mount a
usb disk or flash drive to which to save the dump.
All options at that point appear to lead to a reboot and reinstall from
the beginning.
Other information of questionable relevance:
Basic partitioning used the 10 GB for PS3 option. On the remainder, Did
custom partition with about
500MB /, 1000MB swap, 256MB /tmp, 6GB /usr, 2GB /var, 2GB /nome, 8GB /opt.
First three are "primary" partitions, remainder logical partitions.
Disk labels appear to be correct - they correspond to the intended mount
point.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Yes. This is from the top of my memory, I'm using a later version of
E17 where things got changed slightly. These instructions may be
slightly inaccurate, but will work with some minor tweaking.

>From the E17 main menu, select Configuration->Modules. Select
the Battery module and load / enable it. 

Back in the main menu, Configuration->Shelves. Select the shelf you
want to add it to, click the Configure button, click the "Configure
Contents" button, and add the Battery gadget.

Hi Christian!

An approach exists which allows you to set your PS3 to one video
setting which should work on both your TV and your HDTV. Those
instructions are available here:

http://www.terrasoftsolutions.com/support/solutions/ydl_5.0/video-config.shtml

In addressing the overall range of your question of why, it might be
best to view the Audio/Video section of documents available here:

Good Luck...

========
The scientist's religious feeling takes the form of a
rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which
reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, in
comparison with it, the highest intelligence of human beings
is an utterly insignificant reflection. This feeling is the
guiding principle of his life and work. 
-- Albert Einstein, Scientist.
