With the correctly sized /dev/sda1 of 4 Megabytes and yaboot (written
by
mkofboot) it gives:

and it hangs with code "7777".
Are you sure it doesn't boot? 7777 is the normal display when the
system is running.
My temporary solution:
I dd your kernel linux.bin (the one without the modules) directly into
/dev/sda1 -> then it boots directly with no problem, so I guess yaboot
1.3.9 has difficulties.
That should work with the modularized kernel, too.
Cheers,
Jens.
