Re: Mandrake on RS 6000

[Kjell Andersson]

I read in some howto that you have to replace the installer in the first ISO image
and then it would work there is also a lot of talk about a E15 framebuffer 
patch that seems very IBM specific. 
As far as my tries i hav to use the serial console approach and i have not managed to
get the installer going from there yet.
