I've been following a couple somewhat-related e-mail chains
on the
list here about some difficulties others are having with the
firewire
connectivity and YDL 4.1. However, I'm about to add my
quandry to the
list...
I've downloaded the ISOs for YDL 4.1, and boot into the
installer
using the "install firewire" option. However,
no matter what I try,
when I get to Anaconda, it never sees the firewire drive
that I have
connected to the computer, just the two internal disks.
It's a G4
dual 450 (Gigabit Ethernet), Firewire drive is a SanDisk
60GB,
connecting through the built-in firewire ports on the Mac.
One suspicion I have is that I've done the whole media
check routine,
and although disks #2-4 check out fine, disk #1 results in a
fail. I
re-download the image, do an MD5 check successfully, but it
still
results in a fail after burning and booting. I've
downloaded, checked
and burned disk #1 several times, each time resulting in a
failed
mediacheck. Could this be the cause of the problem with
installing to
Firewire?
Thanks in advance for any help...
