        I would like to thank everybody that replied. I have now read
        a good deal of documentation on generating the bootable CD,
        but I still have some questions:

        1 - After I create a blessed directory (with the -hfs-bless
            option of mkisofs) containing yaboot, yaboot.conf, vmlinux
            and a ramdisk suitable, how will OpenFirmware know that
            upon pressing "c" it will have to load yaboot? Is it
            because the pair type/creator of yaboot is boot/UNIX?

        2 - is the ofboot.b file necessary for booting?


        Thanks for all help so far, Roger...
