Did you check this one ? It seems that the person who started the
thread
had a problem similar to yours (although symmetric).

Hi Charles,
Yes, I see your point. The thing is that still being newbieish to
both Linux and OS X, I don't fully understand this. Here is what I know:
1) I can boot into the Ubuntu HD with both drives connected.
2) Holding down the command-option-o-f keys all together after
pressing the power-on button does not bring up an OF prompt. If I
choose "L" for the Ubuntu partition, it will show up before Ubuntu is
booted.
3) I can't bring up the graphic OF interface. Do you know the key
command combo? I thought it was just "o", but that didn't work.
4) I mounted my OS X partition under Ubuntu and simply couldn't find
the kernel for some reason. I was looking on what is "sdb3" for me.
5) I have created and "mnt/hfs" folder in Ubuntu, I just don't
remember how to get the partition (sdb3) to mount automatically.
The first issue for me seems to be where the ?*#! is the kernel, but
maybe I am going at this all wrong. The only other thing I can think
of is when I do get an OF prompt, to try a string like: boot: sd:3,/
vmlinux root=/dev/hda3 ro. That assumes that "sd" stands for a SATA
drive in OF.
Any ideas, please let me know because I haven't got a clue at this
point. Is there a way I can do a command line search in OS X to find
the kernel path?
Cheers,
Brian
