yaboot.conf here:

------------------------------------
## yaboot.conf generated by debian-installer
##
## run: "man yaboot.conf" for details. Do not make changes until you have!!
## see also: /usr/share/doc/yaboot/examples for example configurations.
##
## For a dual-boot menu, add one or more of:
## bsd=/dev/hdaX, macos=/dev/hdaY, macosx=/dev/hdaZ

boot=/dev/hda3
device=/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:
partition=7
root=/dev/hda7
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
enablecdboot
macosx=/dev/hda2

image=/boot/vmlinux.26.rc5
        label=2.6.26.rc5
        read-only

image=/boot/vmlinux.25.rc3
        label=2.6.25.rc3
        read-only

image=/boot/vmlinux.18.rc4
	label=2.6.18.rc4
	read-only

image=/boot/vmlinux.old
	label=2.6.17.rc3
	read-only


-------------------------------------

The first difference I see is your 'install' line. 

Your '/usr/lib/yaboot' is here just a directory.

man yaboot.conf

Seeing error messages when trying to boot?

Good luck
Wolfgang
