I just got done installing OS X on a Beige G3 tower and once or twice
this issue came up during installation and the various updates I ran.
There's a Radeon Mac Edition installed rather than the internal video.
All I did was do was a restart after the first boot failed and reset
the pram one time. That got the video back and it's been fine since
then.

This is very frustratting. Came as long as to choose disks, and got
told that OSX has to be on the first 8 gigs. Reformatted disk, now
black screen every time XPF tries to install X.
Plenty of RAM (512 MB), machine of the G3 type that sits in a 8600
casing.
I have OS9 on one partition, and use that as helper (Also XPF on that
disk).
Restart w/XPF, & all I get is a black screen (no video signal out).
Rom revision $77D.45F2
6 MB VRAM, 1 MB L2 cache.
Any suggestions?
