Re: graph OF hangs - Please help
Hello again!
First of all thank's to Ethan Benson for the reply and help.
Basically, I want to erase macos from my box (as complete as possible
:-/ ) and install on each of my disks one seperate debian.

If ybin does this, will it be the right way that I have one bootstrap,
lets say on ultra1 and a yaboot which allows booting either woody on
ultra1 or potato on ultra0?
If so, could you explain please how to write that to yaboot.conf.
The other way, I could imagine is to work with two bootstraps as at
the moment. If I go that way, how can I tell ybin from one booted HD
about the yaboot.conf of the other debian.
More realistic I would assume ybin to do it's job on each of my
instllations separatly. I did this and OF hangs. On ultra0 which is
representated in the printenv .... as hd:,\\:tbxi it should be
something like ultra0:9,\\yaboot instead but I can't cope with this :-/.
The third idea I have would be to do ybin from the potato-CD1 :-/ .

That's not the case ...
I put my parition-tables in addendum.
TIA and Cheers
