Re: d-i on a second hard drive in a G5



Here is some information:

1. /dev/sda partition table:
#1      Apple
        Free Space
#3      hfs+
        Free Space

2. /dev/sdb partition table:
#1      Apple
#2      boot (boot flag on)
#3      /
#4      /usr
#5      /var
#6      swap
#7      /tmp
#8      /home

3. Yaboot is installed in /dev/sdb2.

4. /target/etc/yaboot.config (as installed by the d-i):

boot=/dev/sdb2
device=/k2-sata@0/disk@0:
partition=3
root=/dev/sdb3
timeout=100
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
enablecdboot
macosx=/dev/sda3

image=/boot/vmlinux
	label=Linux
	read-only
	initrd=/boot/initrd.img

image=/boot/vmlinux.old
	label=old
	read-only
	initrd=/boot/initrd.img.old

5. I verified the behaviour: At this moment I am in the loop of steps 6
and 7 of my previous message. Also, as I mentioned in the other thread,
if while in the graphical boot menu (step 5) I select OSX, I just get a
blank screen, OSX doesn't boot. However, if I select the Linux icon, and
then "x" from the text menu, OSX loads well.
