Is there anything else I can do to help? Has > yabootconfig already been included in a package? yabootconfig is not in the yaboot package yet, it will be as soon as dan packages the new upstream ybin (released 24 hours ago). we still need to do something about quik, ritual goat sacrifice is somewhat tricky to implement in C... for yabootconfig all we need to do is run: yabootconfig -t /target -r /dev/<root> -b /dev/<Apple_Bootstrap> -r and -b are optional, yabootconfig figures them out if you don't tell it explicitly. however since dbootstrap should already know these answers with good certainty i think its a good idea to use these switches. -t is also --chroot -r is also --root -b is also --boot i am going to post a few patches shortly, i don't have CVS access atm. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
