I dont see the mac, memory, usb or the radeon (same as mine except for the rom flash and extra 32 mb of vram) having anything to do with your problem.

Yeh, it loads the USB device drivers fine and has no display issues (altho it's only ever in text modes).


Sounds like the driver is the problem.
If you haven't already, have a look through the the ppc-cooker archives or sub to ppc-cooker found in the developers list here
http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/flists.php3
The archive appears to be down, I've found no match in my archive to for your the card.

I couldn't get to the archive, and I'm loathed to post in that list as it's really only for bug reports,, but then it looks like it's a bug so it's probably worth it ;o)


There is always alt-F2, F3 and F4 to get some info during the install.

These do not work, or give me blank screens, thus I think the installer is locking up solid. If it was just sitting waiting for something I should be able to see what it's doing, but alas no...


Sorry I dont have the HW or time to go further, maybe someone can suggest a second driver that will get you through the install? Mdk isn't very big on this list.

As it's probably one of the most complete Linux distro's on the MAc platform that surprises me. A lot.
