It's basically the > default one, just with the partition number changed. i think you may need the yaboot-0.9-0.30-3 package that was just installed into potato r3. the potato r2 yaboot had missing machines in the compatible entry if yours is one of them OF will refuse to boot it. for now try: boot hd:9,yaboot once your booted, make sure your /etc/yaboot.conf is correct (please post it, along with output of df /). and upgrade your yaboot package (apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade or apt-get install yaboot). once you have yaboot-0.9-0.30-3 installed and a correct /etc/yaboot.conf run: mkofboot -v i also would like to see the output of mac-fdisk -l /dev/hda. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
