I am sorry but I still don't get what you mean with "dump". When you
apply changes to /etc/yaboot.conf by invoking /sbin/ybin you
reinstall
the bootloader, just like lilo does on x86.
Okay, but is there any way to write the /etc/yaboot.conf from
whatever is already on the boot partition? Boot entries (OS X, CD,
Linux), boot order, partition info?
You like to have a script / program that creates a valid
"yaboot.conf" file from scratch with entries for existing partitions
and the OS they contain? Would be nice to have it beside ybin. The
ubuntu and debian installer both do a good job in that, sad thing
that this part isn't a standalone script but integrated part of the
installer. Not quite *nix like, I guess.
