Otherwise, there may be a method for you to install this particular ISO - but if so, Stew will have to fill you in. I know he's been helping some people that were having bad kernel problems, though I don't know if this applies to your configuration or not.
Sorry I'm not full of good info - I'm merely relaying info that I've seen appear on the list previously.

but you might try going into Open Firmware (start the computer, listen for the boing, hit option-command-O-F simultaneously) and type devalias to see what 'cd' is aliased to - write back on what it is. We may be able to detect something wrong.

Subject: Re: not bootingThat's a new one. We've had others with those machines that would get a
kernel panic at boot, but I don't think I've seen anyone with the probelm
as you describe it. Is is possible that the burn was bad in some way?
There should be new ISO's coming out pretty soon, with a new kernel and
boot setup, which may solve your issues.
