As a workaround, if you can download the newer 2.4.4-6.2mdk kernel that is
up on the mirrors, and hopefully you have a network you can place it on
somewhere (forgive if I'm telling you stuff you already know):
boot the CD into rescue mode
mount your "/" partiton on /mnt/disk: mount /dev/hdX /mnt/disk
modprobe bmac (or gmac or mace - whatever is appropriate)
ifconfig eth0 some.appropriate.ip.address
chroot /mnt/disk
ftp to-your-server and get the new kernel RPM
rpm -i linux-2.4.4-6.2mdk
check that new entry is in /etc/yaboot.conf with label 244-62
exit
reboot
boot new kernel 244-62
if that one works OK - change the default in /etc.yaboot.conf and run ybin
