doing some investigation about this issue (not a cd problem) I tried to sub=
stitute
ofboot.b with an example from the latest yaboot in doc/examples/simpleboot.=
chrp
(attaching the file I used ) and rebuild the iso and it works! Said that, t=
he
ofboot.b relevant section seems to be <compatible> or even <os-badge-icon>.
Probably my powerbook has a recent OF version (bought one month ago, powerb=
ook
g4 1ghz) and it doesn't recognize the cd as bootable with the old ofboot.b.
Perhaps it should be changed so newer powerbooks can boot, I didn't tested =
it
with older macs but it should work.
