yes boot on cd (as for installation)
at yaboot prompt
"welcome to yaboot blah....
boot: "
type the following command
hd:<linux_root_partition>,/vmlinux
where <linux_root_partition> looks like 11 in your case.
the pismo should boot on the installed linux.
edit /etc/yaboot.conf to reflect your partition s$
etc
run mkofboot, run ybin.
