During the YDL 3.0 instal it said some thing about fix partition map and even though I thought I was avoiding hdb it stuffed up my X install.  I too can see my OSX partition in OS9 but I can't boot it either with yaboot or with "startup dsik' control panel.  From an OSX recue disk the partitions come up blank but OS9 bots fine.
