You mean yaboot is within /install/powermac, right? Not just inside /install? I think that would definitely be a problem. When I wanted to change systems in MacOS, I always used to de-bless a System Folder by moving its System inside Startup Items (the second level). If the system-type item isn't immediately within the top-level folder, the folder gets unblessed.On Debian, the blessed folder is "powermac" within "install" ("/install/powermac") and contains yaboot, etc. "ofboot.b" is marked as system. I don't know where ybin is, probably within the invisible apple boot partition. On Partimage, the blessed folder is "boot" in the root ("/boot"), where "yaboot" is marked system. On Suse 7.0, the blessed folder is "suseboot" in the root ("/suseboot"), where "yaboot" is marked system. It also contains a fake "finder" and a "system".I'm changing cvs.debian.org/powerpc-specials/mini-iso.sh to put yaboot and the kernel into the /install folder rather than right at the root level. Should be fixed up in half an hour or so.The image from olemiss.edu boots on my tray-loading iMac and installs perfectly (except the stable sources.list). On an oldworld, it doesn't boot. What's stopping us from using miBoot on a CD?
