Notice that you cannot really screw up the system, since you can easily
enough fix it with a debain-installer cd in rescue mode to re-install
yaboot. Just make sure you have a debian-installer media ready before
you do the try. There is even a resintall yaboot menu option, altough i
never tried it.

It used to work two years ago when i tried it on my pegasos, not sure
how it has evolved since then.
