I looked through my notebook- it is not there... I'll keep looking
but....

 

I did the install on a system with a video card to be a headless system,
then I moved the disk to a system which had the NVRAM changed.

I don't suppose you know what needed to be changed in the nvram?  I've
already changed the boot-device setting.  Is there something else?

I had similar issues on older YDL revisions. I did not find a way to do
a headless install, (An install for a headless system: Yes) 

 

For the Headless install some items in the nvram had to be changed.

Subject: [ydl-gen] YDL 5.0.1 on an Xserve

Hola all,

 

Has anyone tried to do a headless install of 5.0.1 on an Xserve yet?  I
have a dual G5 that I'm trying to put 5.0.1 on and it's giving me fits.
I get to the boot prompt, but it shows no kernels to boot from or to
install from.  I get this no matter what I type at the boot prompt:

 

:2,/vmlinux, Unable to open file, Invalid device

 

I've check summed my downloads, but I may re-burn disc 1 to see if it
makes a difference.
