I had something similar happen to me with my pismo powerbook at one
point. I think I ended up reinstalling yaboot cleanly with an older
version. I never investigated or had enough knowledge to figure out the
actual cause, but I think it may have be a corrupted file or something.

Hi
I've read Chris's excellent HOWTO on Booting with Yaboot on PowerPC and
the penguinppc.org mac-fdisk doc. Have created and reordered the
Apple-Bootstrap partition to /dev/hda2. I can OF boot Linux and can
get into OSX by holding down Option key during start-up. But I am
having trouble g

You'll probably need that patch:

debian-powerpc,
The box is currently running what seems to be a heavily patched 2.2.13
(MSK 1999). This kernel is _reall_ old, and resides on a boot floppy
that I attempt to keep in pristine condition.

I got the following mail from Jessy Blanchette. It turns out that he has
a M6 based video chip (instead of a M7).
I have no idea if this can be useful to M6 or M7 users. I have not yet
tried it.

Oh, and the OpenFirmware version doesn't want to boot off of yaboot's
bootstrap partition: it says "hd:2,/vmlinux: Unknown or corrupt
filesystem". I.e. it reaqds yaboot off of there, but doesn't read the
kernel. I'm just booting from yaboot in the OS X partition.
