Thank you very much for supporting ,
i downloaded the NETINST,
but how can i boot?
i am used to go into OPEN FIRMWARE
at start by pressing ALT+CMD+O+F
there i type
boot cd:,\install\yaboot
supose that with NETINST the procedure is different?
I usually followed the instructions on [1], which propose the following
command to boot from CD-ROM:
```
boot cd:,\\:tbxi
```
...which should boot any file with the "tbxi" (ToolBox ROM Image
according to [2]) type. I'm unsure if this command will actually look
into subdirectories of the CD-ROM though. I believe I used this command
to install Jessie on my Xserve G4 the last weekend.
Alternatives:
It might also work to hit and hold the "C" key on startup or hit and
hold the "option" (Alt) key, which will show all bootable media, from
which you can choose the CD-ROM and boot (should work with and without
mouse).
Cheers,
Frank
