Open Firmware recognizes the DVD-RW drive, and the CD I'm trying to install from. When I start up in OpenFirmware and enter the "boot cd:\\yaboot" command, I get an error saying "wrong partition 1 size". There are a few more messages and "wrong partition 1 size" again. I do get a yaboot prompt, but no matter which package I specify, the next screen stops after 3 or 4 lines of messages. The final message I get is "DO-QUIESCE finished booting". I waited for half an hour to see if anything further would happen, but nothing did. A couple of times the computer shut down after I entered the package name at the yaboot prompt.
