Comments/Problems:
The installer didn't find the bootstrap partition. I tried many times to check
if something were wrong (and to re-partition), but finally I ignored the
advice and went on with the installation, without installing Yaboot. Then I
booted with a GentooPPC 2004.1 LiveCD passing to the kernel the
root=/dev/hda6 option, and then I installed yaboot manually, first with
yabootconfig and then tweaking the yaboot.conf file because of the wrong
MacOSX partition (when it is on a UFS, the partition should be the "eXternal
booter" partition before the MacOS UFS one. I'm sorry for the bad English.
Then, after rebooting, everything went ok.

Please use test candidate 1; this was a known bug in beta 4, but has
since been fixed.
