Hi

I also lost my OS9 & OSX, here is the solution I got from support :-

Add the following to your /etc/yaboot.conf file, near the top: 

macosx=/dev/hda11 
macos=/dev/hda10 

Then, as root, type: 

/usr/sbin/ybin 

Then reboot, and you should be able to get OS X and OS 9.  

You can use pdisk /dev/hda to find which partition OSX is installed on :-

1: Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 
2: Apple_Driver43*Macintosh 56 @ 64 
3: Apple_Driver43*Macintosh 56 @ 120 
4: Apple_Driver_ATA*Macintosh 56 @ 176 
5: Apple_Driver_ATA*Macintosh 56 @ 232 
6: Apple_FWDriver Macintosh 512 @ 288 
7: Apple_Driver_IOKit Macintosh 512 @ 800 
8: Apple_Patches Patch Partition 512 @ 1312 
9: Apple_Bootstrap untitled 2048 @ 1824 ( 1.0M) 
10: Apple_HFS "OS9" 29570560 @ 73022992 ( 14.1G) 
11: Apple_HFS "OSX" 53707928 @ 102593552 ( 25.6G) 
12: Apple_UNIX_SVR2 swap 3144960 @ 3872 ( 1.5G) 
13: Apple_UNIX_SVR2 untitled 69874160 @ 3148832 ( 33.3G) 
14: Apple_Free Extra 8 @ 156301480
