Unfortunately if I try to dd it back with the Powerbook under OS X, what I get is a remarkably good random number generator. For CD 1 I'm running: dd if=/dev/disk1 bs=2k count=332802 | md5sum -b Shouldn't I expect this to work in OS X? I get no errors in the terminal or in system.log. dd reports reading the right number of blocks, no errors. Funny thing is if I go through the filesystem and md5sum each of the RPM files, they all check out 100%. Very odd. I'll try a net install if I get a chance. BTW, boot cd:,\boot\yaboot wasn't accepted at the OF prompt either. Paul.
