I have just bought a Wallstreet (PDQ) 300MHz with 192MB of RAM which I am now attempting to install OS X.2 onto, however, when it has booted of the CD, as soon as the OS X screen appears (with the progress bar) the backlight switches off and cannot be revived with key-presses or touchpad-movements, basically I cannot see what I'm doing.
I had this phenomena on a 233MHz Wallstreet so I know (?) it's not the PowerBook.
How do I go about solving this so that I can install OS X ?
I've had this happen while running OS X. The solution for me is to restart in OS 9, put the laptop to sleep, wake it up then restart into OS X.
