[slackintosh-users] Re: Installation on G3-Yosemite with CMD646 rev.1

Hi,

alt1 is also 2.6 based.

Workaround:

 - Boot from cdrom
    -> at the yaboot prompt enter:
     alt1 root=/dev/hdaX (<- hdaX = your root partition)

 The system should now boot your installation

 - Mount the cdrom : eg /mnt/cdrom
 - copy /mnt/cdrom/boot/vmlinuxalt1 into /boot
 - edit /etc/yaboot.conf
 - run 'ybin -v'

 -> reboot
