Package: yaboot-installer
Version: 1.1.34

This is a bug that appears to crop up in the beginning of the development cycle 
for a version of (recent) Debians.
I run an Apple PowerPC G5 Dual 2.0 with Apple-branded Nvidia GeForce 6800 Ultra 
256 MB graphics.

To be clear, this issue is with Jessie’s current yaboot 
functionality/compatibility with Mac OS X.

Upon finishing the installation, rebooting, and seeing the yaboot boot menu 
(“l” for Linux, etc.) choosing “x” or “m” for booting my respective version of 
OS X (“m” was able to boot OS X “Tiger” in Wheezy) flashes the screen once and 
does not boot any OS X at all. Only “l” to boot Debian is able to work, and 
this necessitates alt-booting if I wish to boot into (an) OS X at all.

I have issuing ybin -v within Debian once booted (right after installation) to 
see if that corrects the problem (I am addressing my OS X installations on a 
separate drive, /dev/sdb, and Debian is on /dev/sda with the yaboot HDD 
byte-codea). This did not make a difference.

I thank you in advance for follow-up.
