I've found a bit of discussion about things like this, but can't figure out how to solve my exact problem, so here goes.
If I run ybin when booted into a 2.4 kernel, it correctly updates the bootloader on this Mac (a G4 "Windtunnel" PowerMac).
If I run ybin when booted into a 2.6 kernel something goes very wrong (although no interesting errors appear to this effect, apart from "ofpath: WARNING: Your kernel is too old for proper support, device may be innaccurate." warnings). The Mac boots directly into OS X when next rebooted.
This is ybin 1.3.11.
My yaboot.conf is as follows:
| Code: | ## yaboot.conf generated by yabootconfig 1.0.7
##
## run: "man yaboot.conf" for details. Do not make changes until you have!!
##
## For a dual-boot menu, add one or more of:
## bsd=/dev/hdaX, macos=/dev/hdaY, macosx=/dev/hdaZ
boot=/dev/hda13
device=/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:
partition=12
root=/dev/hda12
timeout=30
install=/usr/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/lib/yaboot/ofboot
image=/boot/vmlinux.2.6.1
label=Linux2.6.1
read-only
sysmap=/boot/System.map.2.6.1
append="video=ofonly"
image=/boot/vmlinux.beta
label=LinuxBeta
read-only
sysmap=/boot/System.map.beta
append="video=ofonly"
image=/boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
sysmap=/boot/System.map
append="video=ofonly hdc=ide-scsi"
image=/boot/vmlinux.old
label=LinuxOld
read-only
sysmap=/boot/System.map.old
append="video=ofonly"
macosx=/dev/hda10
enablecdboot
enableofboot

Any ideas how to get ybin to work properly from 2.6?
Thanks |
