 3) just to be on the safe side, the content of your yaboot.conf.

	Smart man. I'll attach. May be at the bottom of the msg. The
	partition 5 items are the current install that I did yesterday. The
partition 7 group is the install from last week. The orb has an ancient linuxppc install on it and I use it for my rescue disk. (Probably should
update that baby.)

Well, there the mystery is solved, none of your entries had any initrd field,
... wrong, you had one in this one :

image=hd:7,/boot/vmlinux
        label=testing
	initrd=/boot/initrd.img
	device=hd:
	partition=7
	root=/dev/hda7

Which is the entry from last week (which worked right ?), but none of the
partition 5 had any initrd entry. and your error message was :


No, that's why I went on the kernel-hunt ending up with the ppckernel.org kernels. It did not work last week.

In a bit,

jeff
