Thank you. I'm sure I will need help to solve this. The official image
works, so something must be missing from this di.

What FS do you use on sda3?

I also got this error when running mkofboot was unsuccessful,
disappeared after corrected symlink to 'ybin'.

I haven't seen this. Maybe some 32-bit lib missing from di?

At the first view, it seems yaboot cannot determine device/OFpath
pairs but I can't find out why. On my Power5, yaboot.conf was created
by the debian-installer, and it does not contain 'ofboot=' section.
(I've left yaboot.conf untouched)

Additionally, I forgot to include the 32-bit kernel in this ISO.
