How to install YDL 6.0 on SDTV?
Is there a guide or way on how to install Yellow Dog Linux 6.0 for my SDTV? I don't have an HDTV yet, but want to try it out, and see if its better than PSUbuntu 7.10. Thanks.
THANK YOU JoN-

Re: How to install YDL 6.0 on SDTV?
If your monitor has only Composite (3 RCA jacks) the YDL installer (Anaconda) should default
to "installtext", a low-resolution text mode. This will later require command line configuration in order to gain a low resolution (difficult to read) graphical interface. Instructions to do this are found at
