YDL2.0/OS8.6/UMAX J700/SonnetG3 Kernal Panic

[Derick Centeno]

Hi Joe:
It's great to be of help whenever possible; I just have to remember to 
read the subject line more carefully :-).

There exists a field within the BootX dialog; it starts with / or /dev. 
  The idea is that you enter the mount point there, as in /hda5 or 
whereever pdisk tells you the YDL mount point is.  You don't need to 
enter /dev/dev/hda5.

Best wishes....
