Hi Michel :-)<div><br></div><div>Acutally I didn't figure it out by myself :</div><div><a href="http://saintaardvarkthecarpeted.com/blog/archive/2005/02/THE_WINE_OF_BOOT.html">http://saintaardvarkthecarpeted.com/blog/archive/2005/02/THE_WINE_OF_BOOT.html</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>However, here's my 2 cents about it :</div><div>1/ The fix (removing "screen" line in ofboot.b on yaboot partition) doesn't work with all versions of the yaboot binary. Works with the one from Debian. Doesn't with yaboot-static on GentooPPC64. But you still can fetch the right binary from the .deb archive</div>
<div>2/ Another possible solution can be to hook up a DVI-> VGA adapter, and plug in a resistor between the right pins (don't remember which) so that yaboot thinks a display is plugged in</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps !!</div>

</div>Out of curiosity, how did you solve this? I still have an unused monitor<br>
connected to mine...<br>
