Hi Michel :-) Acutally I didn't figure it out by myself : http://saintaardvarkthecarpeted.com/blog/archive/2005/02/THE_WINE_OF_BOOT.html
However, here's my 2 cents about it : 1/ The fix (removing "screen" line in ofboot.b on yaboot partition) doesn't work with all versions of the yaboot binary. Works with the one from Debian. Doesn't with yaboot-static on GentooPPC64. But you still can fetch the right binary from the .deb archive 2/ Another possible solution can be to hook up a DVI-> VGA adapter, and plug in a resistor between the right pins (don't remember which) so that yaboot thinks a display is plugged in Hope that helps !! - Romain 2009/10/6 Michel Dänzer <mic...@daenzer.net> > On Tue, 2009-10-06 at 11:16 +0200, Romain Goyet wrote: > > > > I have this Quad G5 here, running GentooPPC64.
