You can add any command to the boot.plist file so you wont have to input it manualy every time.
Anyway, did you install it on the second drive/partition ?

Dunno rd=disk0s1 wouldnt let me install it.
Ok I can boot into it aslong as I have the installation disk in and I selected my graphics driver on the install and i'm stuck at 1024x768 .

Question : Does anyone have any idea how to disable built-in display and work only on external one ? It seems to slow down a little with 2 screens active...
before you boot and just at bios stage trying using the function keys usually marked blue to switch just to external first then continue to boot

Tried that but when system boots and the desktop is about to show - internal one turns on again. Switching it off with the key again breaks both displays.
