This is a typo, is it not? should be image=/vmlinux > partition=11 > label=Linux > read-only So, with this .conf, you get a menu with options OSX or linux, right? l for linux loads yaboot. Is this where the 'second stage bootstrap' error occurs? It really seems like this could be a ybin issue; or possibly a filesystem corruption on the bootstrap partition, since that's where it would be loading yaboot from. It may work manually from OF through a different code path than the CHRP script activation. Try, first: ybin -v to see if any errors are reported. Then mkofboot -v so the bootstrap partition filesystem is re-created. > /etc/fstab looks like this: > > /dev/hda11 / ext2 etc. below > /dev/hda12 none swap > proc /proc proc > /dev/fd0 /floppy auto > /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 > /dev/hda13 /usr ext2 > /dev/hda14 /var ext2 > /dev/hda15 /tmp ext2 > /dev/hda16 /home ext2 -- "The way the Romans made sure their bridges worked is what we should do with software engineers.
