So my Powerbook G3 266mhz Wallstreet is now successfully running

been using:
video=atyfb:vmode:16,cmode:32,mclk:67
However, it doesn't seem to let me boot, as a get a crazy mess of
graphics going hangwire. Is there something in quik that needs to
changed, or is the above command incorrect?
have you tried just using video=atyfb ?
According to http://www.jonh.net/lppcfom-serve/cache/1043.html you
should use
a cmode of 24 and probably also a lower vmode. Whats mclk?
Yes, just using video=atyfb causes the same issue. There is a
difference somewhere in the way quik configures stuff and the way
BootX/miBoot do it, using video=atyfb (+ all the various gubbins)
from a BootX / miBoot boot works fine and gives you accelerated
video, the same from a quik boot results in garbage.
It's a bit of a pain, to be frank, but I don't currently have the
time to delve into the source of both to see what is happening.
