Hi,
I just saw online a hint how to install the Studio Display 15'' under Suse Linux 7.3. It's written that I have to set a Kernel Parameter (http://sdb.suse.de/de/sdb/html/olh_ppc_apple_tft.html). BUT: Does this mean that I can't install the Linux on my G4 without installing it from another monitor and then (after installing) setting the kernel parameters? If not, when and how can I set the parameters? I have at the moment a Linux 7.0 running on my G4 (which I installed with the "help" of a seperate monitor): is it maybe easier to simply update the system: Does he accept the "older" kernel-paramters automatically? The fact is that I'd like to reinstall my whole computer with formating it (also the MacOS-Partition)...so I'm not very happy with "updating the system". But if there's no other "easy" way...
You don't need to update the system. While installing SuSE Linux 7.3 PPC you can set the parameter at the Open Firmware prompt: Go to OpenFirmware with command+option+o+f and type boot cd:,install video=the_parameter_you_would_like_to_set greetings, Ursel
