I have pretty much the exact same setup but without the boot problem
(usually.) A few tmies, booting YDL I saw some very strange failures
that tended to look like bad disk blocks or somesuch. A reboot, however
semed to work OK.
I don't run the YDL install due to the lack of X and power management.
There were also problems with yaboot not offering my OSX partitio. When
we get a patched X or new Radeon drivers I will probably just reinstall
YDL from scratch.
I recommend you reinstall YDL and see if it changes your behavior.
