After I had sucessfully installed Mandrake I had to reformat the hard drive
due to some space allocation mistakes I made. But after install I do not get
the yaboot prompt anymore. I have done the command-option-O-F thing and set
the boot device but that did not help. All I see is that stupid
How would one go about disabling the graphic boot screen (the ugly
purple screen with the big star in the center) in Mandrake? Its rather
annoying considering I never had to deal with one in the x86 distrobution.
Thanks,
James

As root:
rpm -e
It can also be disabled from the Mandrake Control Center by unchecking the
Aurora boot option.

My G4 Sawtooth plays sound through the internal speaker, even when something
is plugged into the speaker jack on the back. I have had this problem with
every distro I have tried (Linux/PPC, SuSe, Yellow Dog, and Mandrake).

I have found the culprit ... when I went to do the openfirmware thing as the

whereas I replaced the comma with a semi-colon.
Anyhow thanks
