yaboot won't boot OS X

[Jason Blome]

Hello,

     I just finished getting all of my yellow dog 3.0 installation up and 
running, but it seems that now I can't get yaboot or open firmware to boot 
my OS X partition.  I find this strange because I have no problem booting 
this OS X partition through mac-on-linux, nor did I have a problem booting 
this with YellowDog 2.3.  When I try to boot the OS X partition from the 
yaboot prompt I get the following error: "DEFAULT CATCH, code=fffffff6."  My 
yaboot.conf file and the output of pdisk -l follow.  I am running YellowDog 
3.0 on a 2002 15" Powerbook g4.  Any insight into this problem would be 
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jay


the contents of /etc/yaboot.conf are:

boot=/dev/hda9
device=/pci@f2000000/mac-io@17/ata-4@1f000/disk@0:
init-message="Yellowdog Linux 3.0!\nHit <TAB> for boot options.\n\n"
partition=12
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
macosx=/dev/hda14

image=/boot/vmlinux-2.4.20-8d
        label=linux
        root=/dev/hda12
        read-only
        initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.20-8d.img
        append="hdc=ide-scsi"

delay=10
enablecdboot


the result of running /sbin/pdisk -l is:
