I'm trying to install PPC 8.2 from the Mandrake CDs on a beige G3. I've
got 1.5 Gig free space on the disk drive, and 256 Mb ram.
Although I've read the readme.html file in the doc folder on the CD,
nothing I've tried so far has got the machine to boot from the CD
to a running 2.4 one.

Do I need to build a new kernel or are the firewire and pcmcia drivers
