Installation Problems: powerpc, Release Candidate, B&W G3

Well, the system boots from the CD fine, and completes the installation
process without error -- including copying all files from the CD to the hard
drive.

However, on the reboot following the installation from the CD -- the reboot
into your hard drive whereupon it is supposed to ask initial install
questions -- it gives the error mentioned before.

Thanks,
