Hi,

First you should reboot with your install CD.
As soon as possible : execute a shell
in in mount your / partition on /target for example.
Then :
# chroot /target
# mount /proc
# mount -a
# yabootconfig
# umount -a
# umout /proc
# exit
# umount /target
This procedure should able you to play with yaboot in order to find
where the problem can be...

Hope it will help.
