I am unable to boot into YDL after I installed Tiger.
Setup: G4 AGP Graphics, two scsi disks on pci controller
I created the Apple boot partition and YDL partitions of the first
disk, installed YDL on first disk. So far, so good. After installing
YDL on first disk, I installed Tiger on second disk. Now I am unable
to boot into YDL. Yaboot is getting started, but I think my
yaboot.conf is hosed somehow.
I start up in OF and cannot seem to get the OF device string correct
to boot into YDL correctly. When I try the following I get an OF
error:
boot /pci/ADPT,39160 at 4/@1:3,\vmlinux
I've tried to boot from cd-rom with the following:
boot: root=/dev/sda3
and get the error:
"warning: can't initialize console" at which point it just hangs
what am i missing here?
