I would, but the truth is that it makes no sense. I've booted the TiBook
with the YDL 2.1 CD by holding down the 'c' key, so by the time I get to
that stage in the installation, it should be perfectly obvious that the CD
is already mounted!
I've tried to simply bypass this step in the installation by doing a
"Custom" installation, but by the time I get to the point where I'm to
select packages, the installer tells me that I must first have selected
the "type".
I know some others have run into this...has no one found a solution?
Thanks,
David
