Yaboot.conf- booting multiple debian systems
Hi All
I'm having trouble setting up yaboot to boot more than one Debian
system. My partition map is attached. Basically I have my production
(sid) system root partition on hda16 and hda17 is a test system I
installed using the d-i beta4 and upgraded to sid. I would like yaboot
to give me the option to boot into macOSX, hda16 or hda17. I've created
yaboot.conf as follows:
delay=20
Linux=/dev/hda16
Test=/dev/hda17
macosx=/dev/hda10
boot=/dev/hda2
device=hd:
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
image=/vmlinux
label=Linux
partition=16
root=/dev/hda16
read-only
image=/vmlinux
label=Test
partition=17
root=/dev/hda17
read-only
image=/vmlinux.old
label=Linux.old
read-only
However, I only get the option of Linux or MacOSX on boot. I've
googled for yaboot.conf examples to follow but couldn't find anything
useful.
Any guidance would be much appreciated ;)
Thanks
Clive
