Thanks Pete.
Is there anyone out there who might have some more specific instruction on
this topic?
I have already wasted a couple of days on this and would rather not waste
any more time fumbling around in the dark.
Thanks.
Tal

It's been awhile, but that's how I installed YDL 1.2 on my 9500. I put
all the rpms in a folder on the MacOS HFS partition, and a ramimage.gz
or something file in the System Folder, then directed BootX to that
location for the install. After that, I reset BootX to point to the
partition where YDL was installed. Sorry, but I don't remember the
actual steps.
Bottom line: Installing from the hard drive worked for me.

So here's a question for you...
If you put the Yellow Dog folder into your Mac Hard Drive, will BootX
find
it? Or do you have to have it on a CD?
