before doing such hazardous things, whith a friend of mine we did this. chroot on /target/ apt-get install yaboot launch yabootconfig says: unable to locate bootstrap partition on /dev/sda..... I am sure the partition exists, whith the flag 0x41 the man says ...you must create a 800K partition; mine is 10 M because I did not know how allocate. Is this 800K mandatory ? Friendly Felipe.
