It's looking for an hfs filesystem, and not finding any. First check mac-fdisk -l to be sure the bootstrap is where you think it is, and that it's type Apple_Bootstrap. Double check your conf file to be sure it's got all the right stuff in it: nano-tiny /target/etc/yaboot.conf Then use the same chroot commands as before, except substitute 'mkofboot' instead of 'ybin'. That should initialize the partition and then install yaboot. -- http://Www.TruthAboutWar.org Chris Tillman - Linux Rox -
