Re: yaboot problem? OS won't load after install on a Power Mac G5
Hi Christoph,
Indeed, these files seem to exist http://i.imgur.com/uAPd5sL.jpg
As to the question regarding the FS type for /boot I'm not really sure, it's whatever comes with this setup http://i.imgur.com/fPYDHbI.jpg but there was a setting including "mac newworld" something in the name.
I took the screenshot during the last install, I tried a couple of times before that trying different partitioning e.g. LVM and others, in one of my attempts I renamed 'boot' from "untitled" to Apple_Bootstrap as I found a post by someone saying it worked for him when he was installing Ubuntu.
P.S. Sorry if not the proper way to reply to a mail list, never used them before :/

Do these files actually exist? When setting up two installations during
the weekend, they were missing. This ought to be a bug in yaboot but I
didn't get around to debug this.
So either: Remove the "/boot" part and re-run ybin, or create according
links in /boot/ that point to vmlinux-<version>, same for initrd.
The first is robust, the second easier to test.
Christoph
