[GLLUG] Mandrake 9.1/PPC

[Mike Szumlinski]

Yeah, if I use the bootX bootloader, the installer loads off the CD 
just fine.  When I get to the partitioning scheme, I can't do anything. 
  No matter what partition layout I use it always tells me that the 
system can't boot without a bootstrap partition and there isn't enough 
space (1MB needed) to create the bootstrap partition.  So basically, I 
can't do anything because I can't even get the install to start
