Bug Description
I just acquired an iMac G3 with Breezy loaded, so I know that ubuntu can go on. However, booting off a Dapper Drake flight 5 install CD (downloaded last night), the message:
DEFAULT CATCH!, code=300 at _SRR0: xxxxxxxx _SRR1: 0000b030
flashes all over the screen, with the SRR0 hex address cycling, and the underscores showing some funky character.
It looks like it's similar to:

CD was burned using ubuntu 5.10 (i386), right clicking and hitting "write to CD".
** New to ubuntu, so I'll attempt to troubleshoot this until I have more information.

tried burning the CD again using command line cdrecord (still on the ubuntu machine), as suggested here: yellowdog- board.com/ viewtopic. php?t=511& sid=1124dc817e1 0b13bb80bfaf919 ceb84f

No luck - except that it locked up solidly (couldn't power it down at all) this time.
Burned on Taiyo Yuden media.
