yaboot on iMac 333mhz

[Felix Jodoin]

Well, for me my problem's a bit more, shall we say, interesting; Same 
setup (but /dev/hda9, not 14) But I have 10.3.3 and if I run ybin and 
reboot I get
in an open firmware like screen:
Default catch at 0x000e3f (not at all for the binary part, but you get 
the picture). I then have to boot of a mac cd and reselect my mac os x 
drive to make my system usable. As for booting of a disc, MAKE SURE THE 
DISC VERSION MATCHES THE INSTALLED VERSION. I type:
linux rescue root=/dev/hda9
And it goes great. I am using 3.0.
