-Currently, the only &arch-title; subarchitectures that support CD-ROM
-booting are PReP and New World PowerMacs. On PowerMacs, hold the
-<keycap>c</keycap> key, or else the combination of
-<keycap>Command</keycap>, <keycap>Option</keycap>,
-<keycap>Shift</keycap>, and <keycap>Delete</keycap>
-keys together while booting to boot from the CD-ROM.

-
-OldWorld PowerMacs will not boot a Debian CD, because OldWorld
-computers relied on a Mac OS ROM CD boot driver to be present on the CD,
-and a free-software version of this driver is not available. All
-OldWorld systems have floppy drives, so use the floppy drive to launch
-the installer, and then point the installer to the CD for the needed
-files.

-
-If your system doesn't boot directly from CD-ROM, you can still use
-the CD-ROM to install the system. On NewWorlds, you can also use an
-OpenFirmware command to boot from the CD-ROM manually. Follow the
-instructions in <xref linkend="boot-newworld"/> for booting from
-the hard disk, except use the path to <command>yaboot</command> on the
-CD at the OF prompt, such as
-
-<informalexample><screen>

-If you set up BootX in <xref linkend="files-oldworld"/>, you can

-Specified RAM Disk</guilabel>. This will give you the

-You will have already placed the <filename>vmlinux</filename>,

-<filename>yaboot.conf</filename> files at the root level of your HFS

-<keycap>Option</keycap>, <keycap>Command (cloverleaf/Apple)</keycap>,
-<keycap>o</keycap>, and <keycap>f</keycap> keys all together. After
-a few seconds you will be presented with the Open Firmware prompt.
-At the prompt, type
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-0 &gt; boot hd:<replaceable>x</replaceable>,yaboot
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-replacing <replaceable>x</replaceable> with the partition number of
-the HFS partition where the
-kernel and yaboot files were placed, followed by a &enterkey;. On some
-machines, you may need to use <userinput>ide0:</userinput> instead of
-<userinput>hd:</userinput>. In a few more seconds you will see a
-yaboot prompt
-
-<informalexample><screen>
-boot:
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-At yaboot's <prompt>boot:</prompt> prompt, type either
-<userinput>install</userinput> or <userinput>install video=ofonly</userinput>
-followed by a &enterkey;. The
-<userinput>video=ofonly</userinput> argument is for maximum
-compatibility; you can try it if <userinput>install</userinput>
-doesn't work. The Debian installation program should start.

-Make sure you have prepared everything from <xref

-
-You will need to work out where the USB storage device appears in the
-device tree, since at the moment <command>ofpath</command> cannot work
-that out automatically. Type <userinput>dev / ls</userinput> and
-<userinput>devalias</userinput> at the Open Firmware prompt to get a

-
-The <replaceable>2</replaceable> matches the Apple_HFS or
-Apple_Bootstrap partition onto which you copied the boot image earlier,
-and the <userinput>,\\:tbxi</userinput> part instructs Open Firmware to
-boot from the file with an HFS file type of "tbxi" (i.e.
-<command>yaboot</command>) in the directory previously blessed with
-<command>hattrib -b</command>.

-Many older Apple monitors used a 640x480 67Hz mode. If your video
-appears skewed on an older Apple monitor, try appending the boot
-argument <userinput>video=atyfb:vmode:6</userinput> , which will
-select that mode for most Mach64 and Rage video hardware. For Rage 128
-hardware, this changes to
