Well at least you know your system is working properly, that is exactly
what should happen given what you did :-)
The Tiger installation over-wrote yaboot on the boot sector of your
drive. Had you installed the OSes in the opposite order you would be OK
(I think).
Anyway, I believe if you simply boot into YDL and run ybin it should
replace yaboot and things should run OK.
