Thanks. For me the options worked from the CD. I was using CDRW even though they are slow to burn and to use for installation. I have to try making the USB stick again. I've not had luck finding good directions on that. > I guess if you have a spare drive and always start with some OS on > the drive?

It's good that you have a wireless set up that you can easily use. I don't have a convenient set up yet. This round I'd like to try testing more the wireless in the AMD64+mac architecture, since it was not working last round. Ironicially the wireless in the soon to be 10 years old G4 works perfectly during the installation and afterwards. > I will see if I can get a persistent USB working next on Lubuntu > precise-powerpc.iso. I wasn't able to get the persistent USB working but that may be from my being obtuse or something.
