my yaboot.conf looks like this boot=/dev/sdb2 device=/[EMAIL PROTECTED]: partition=4 root=/dev/sdb4 timeout=100 magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot install=/usr/lib/yaboot enablecdboot macosx=/dev/sdb3 image=/boot/vmlinux label=Linux read-only initrd=/boot/initrd.img image=/boot/vimlinux.old label=old read-only initrd=/boot/initrd.img.old i ran devalias and changed device= to /[EMAIL PROTECTED], f2000000/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/k2-sata, but that didnt work, so i tried it with /[EMAIL PROTECTED]: at the end, but that didnt work so i tried /ht/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/k2-sata-root/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED], but that didnt work either. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
