Thanks for all the replies I got on this, I finally succeeded in
installing it last night.
Turns out it was a bad DVD-ROM drive ! I disassembled my CD-RW and
installed off of that with no problem. Strange thing is that I have had
no problems with that drive up till now.

Hey,
I am trying to install 10.2 on an old(ish) blue and white PowerMac G3
and it is hanging during boot. If I boot verbose then the relevant
error messages appear to be:
[snip]
using 327 buffer headers and 327 cluster IO buffer headers
panic(cpu0): Unable to find driver for this platform: "PowerMac1,1".
[snip]
It then does a stack backtrace and exception chain followed by
Kernel version:
Darwin Kernel Version 6.0:
Sat Jul 27 13:18:52 PDT 2002; root:xnu/xnu-344.obj~1/RELEASE_PPC
and finally the cute error:
panic: We are hanging here...
I realise that I should probably ask on the Darwin list but I am not a
member. Does anyone have any idea on why this would happen and what I
can do about it ? I have removed all of the non-factory installed RAM
and am booting from a CD of the 6C115 build that the same day I
installed on my PowerBook G4.
Thanks,
Nick
