I recently purchased a Marathon Computer which is a Rack Mounted IMAC
(indigo one - see specs below.) 

I was able to complete an install (install text.)  After completing the
install and rebooting the system, YellowDog does not boot and I get
"Corrupted or Unknown File System." 

I am able to boot from a CDRom and see the sysimage, but can not do
anything more than see the files and not sure what to tweek.  

Has anybody been successful or have suggestions in installing YellowDog
4.0 on this type of hardware? 

Please help...
