[ydl-gen] Boot Mac without a video card

[Andrew Zschetzsche]

After some more testing, it appears that the hardware and firmware  
will allow the computer to boot, however, it appears to get stuck in  
the yaboot process, or in the very early stages of loading the  
kernel.  Anyone still have any advice?

Thanks
Andy Z.
