To make it apply on every boot, add 'append=...' to the image section in 
/etc/yaboot.conf.  E.g.,

	image=...
	   label=...
	   root=...
	   append="video=aty128fb:1280x1024@60"

Then run ybin.

To do it once only, at the boot prompt type the label of the image you 
want to boot and the option.  E.g., if the label is 'linux',

	linux video=aty128fb:1280x1024@60

(Pressing tab at the boot prompt should list the labels you can use.)
