have you played with the startup panel on MacOSX ?
bye the way if you correctly followed the yaboot-howto eg you've made a
Apple_Bootstrap  partition in "first position" (either in position 2 or
juste after the crappy Apple[patches|driver]) you'll be abble to solve
the prblem, by just resetting the PRAM (hold down comand-option-p-r
keys at startup until the machine reboot itself.

yes because I've played with starttup panel from MacOSX, this will
confuse the OF path to the bootloader.
