Linux on PowerPC FAQ-O-Matic : PowerPC Linux :
Blank screen during install? |
| i had this trouble on a PowerBase, and the answer is known to work on a
PowerCenter as well (in fact, a PowerCenter user was kind enough to let me in on
this)
Try setting your output_device to "/bandit/ATY,mach64_3D_pcc". That's the
absolute string which "screen" fails to point to.

| i have a power base and i am using the output device "/bandit/ATY,mach64_3D_pcc"
but it boots to the OF and tells me i have "too many extents, what should i do?

| If all else fails, as on my starmax 5500 did at first, I used /bandit/@11 s-hutinger@wiu.edu | |
| I have a 9500/180MP. It required output-device to be set to
'/bandit@F4000000/ATY,mach64@D' to get a display from Open Firmware.
