there's a more easy way to perform the installation.
copy the kernel yaboot, yaboot.conf and  ramdisk on an HFS partition of
your IDE drive.

eg for yaboot.conf
   init-message = "what you want\n"
   timeout = 50
   default = install

   # replace NUM with the correct value.
   image=hd:NUM,vmliux
   label=install
   initrd=hd:NUM,ramdisk.image.gz
   initrd-size=8192A


boot the machine under OF, and boot the linux installation using
boot hd:NUM,\yaboot
