article says firewire support, plus firewire boot support with config -- where's the config?

[faddah steve wolf]

hi all,

downloaded the ydl 4.0 iso's and want to install.  however, before i 
do...

this article -->  http://www.macnn.com/news/26448
... says there is firewire support in ydl 4.0, plus if you do special 
configuration, you can get it to install and boot off a firewire 
storage drive (see article).

this is what i want — i have a firewire 300 gb maxstor one touch drive 
attached to my powerbook when it's at my home base, and i want the 
yellow dog to be installed and boot off a partition on that firewire 
device.

so my question, please, is —>>  what's the config?  where is it?  is it 
in an f.a.q. or "how to" somewhere?  if so can someone please direct me 
to this (and please, make sure, if possible, that it's simple, as i'm a 
bit of rank unix/linux newbie, so saying "jez re-do this line to be 
'/dev0=1'" without telling me *where* in the file i need to do this, 
what file (name), where the file can be found, and if it needs to be 
recompiled, and how to recompile it, is going to have me coming back 
here asking many more annoying questions — sorry).

any help offered will be greatly appreciated?

sincerely,
