Can't boot Mac OSX after installing Etch

[Ananda Samaddar <a.k.samaddar@googlemail.com>]

Hello everyone,

I am new to the PPC platform after having use either Debian or Ubuntu on X86 for a while now.  I would describe myself as an intermediate user, I can usually get most things working on my own, but this one has got me stumped.

After selecting Mac OSX (10.1 btw) from the Yaboot prompt. The little Apple face appears but instead of booting normally a broken folder icon appears and then system appears to hang.

As I said I'm quite experienced with X86 problems but have had no experience at all with PPC till about four days ago!  I tried google etc but had no luck.  Any help would be appreciated as I don't know where to start!

Thanks,

Ananda
