Try using boot-time option, if possible (the theory is
that is should'nt matter, but who knows ? :-)

Yes. 667 TiBook. Nice machine. Of course now I'm broke :-/

Very nice, but there's not much point in running Linux,
as MacOS X does everything fine (except that Aqua is
really slow... nice, but sloooow :-( )

I managed to have both a FB console display and X,
thanks to the hard work of other, so it's very
usable even now with linux.
