You should allow DrakX to probe the hardware for -the card-specific options that the hardware needs to initialize. This -usually works well. - -If DrakX is not able to probe for the options that need to be passed, you -will need to manually provide options to the driver. Please review the -``User Guide'' (chapter 3, section \"Collecting Information on Your -Hardware\") for hints on retrieving the parameters required from hardware -documentation, from the manufacturer's web site (if you have Internet -access) or from Microsoft Windows (if you used this hardware with Windows -on your system)."), - -setupYabootAddEntry => -__("You can add additional entries for yaboot, either for other operating -systems, alternate kernels, or for an emergency boot image. - -For other OS's, the entry consists only of a label and the root partition. - -For Linux, there are a few possible options: - - * Label: this is simply the name you will have to type at the yaboot prompt -to select this boot option. - - * Image: this would be the name of the kernel to boot. Typically, vmlinux -or a variation of vmlinux with an extension. - - * Root: the \"root\" device or \"/\" for your Linux installation. - - * Append: on Apple hardware, the kernel append option is used quite often -to assist in initializing video hardware, or to enable keyboard mouse -button emulation for the often lacking 2nd and 3rd mouse buttons on a stock -Apple mouse. The following are some examples: - - video=aty128fb:vmode:17,cmode:32,mclk:71 adb_buttons=103,111 hda=autotune - - video=atyfb:vmode:12,cmode:24 adb_buttons=103,111 - - * Initrd: this option can be used either to load initial modules, before -the boot device is available, or to load a ramdisk image for an emergency -boot situation. - - * Initrd-size: the default ramdisk size is generally 4,096 bytes. If you -need to allocate a large ramdisk, this option can be used. - - * Read-write: normally the \"root\" partition is initially brought up in -read-only, to allow a file system check before the system becomes \"live\". -Here, you can override this option. - - * NoVideo: should the Apple video hardware prove to be exceptionally -problematic, you can select this option to boot in \"novideo\" mode, with -native frame buffer support. - - * Default: selects this entry as being the default Linux selection, -selectable by just pressing ENTER at the yaboot prompt.

The first delay is measured in seconds and at this point, you can -choose between CD, OF boot, MacOS or Linux. - - * Kernel Boot Timeout: this timeout is similar to the LILO boot delay. -After selecting Linux, you will have this delay in 0.1 second before your -default kernel description is selected. - - * Enable CD Boot?: checking this option allows you to choose \"C\" for CD -at the first boot prompt. - - * Enable OF Boot?: checking this option allows you to choose \"N\" for Open -Firmware at the first boot prompt. - - * Default OS: you can select which OS will boot by default when the Open -Firmware Delay expires."), - -summary => -__("Here are presented various parameters concerning your machine.
