IIRC the potato docs were slightly faulty on the yaboot front, but I was
too confused at the time to be able to take coherent notes. OTOH, now
that I have it, I find that a die-hard MacOS-using friend is interested
in using yaboot _without_ a non-Apple OS. I guess that makes sense
because its boot menu also lets you boot from CD, choose between MacOS 9
and OS X, or go into the Open Firmware console.
Thanks for the DVD hints BTW.
