Re: Powerbook G4: Mac OS X does not boot again



On my 15" 1Gh PowerBook I can bypass the whole yaboot thing altogether
by holding function+alt straight after a power-on (maybe on a reboot
too).

The Openfireware has a MacOS-esque boot partition selector.  I even get
a little Tux logo on my Linux partition (I don't know if the
openfireware has this icon or whether ybin writes it in there.).

Just click on the OSX partition and it should boot directly into that.

I think this is the same thing some others have described but they all
seem to be mentioning different keys to hold down.

John.
