So provided your wacom tablet is indeed the usb one, try :
  modprobe wacom
	Got 2.6.8 to run, see bottom. Yes indeedy. It now shows, did a lsmod 
before and after, excellent. Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

And add them to your /etc/modules or that fancy X mouse module loading 
stuff.
	You bet.

    [...snip...]
	Hmmm, you mean an "lsmod" after the kernel is running? Or something 
else? I'm not totally familiar with initrd images and what they do. (A 
small gap in my kernel knowledge, maybe you could fill it in real 
quick...25 words or less, or point me to a doc file in the kernel 
documentation, please not too long right now...short on time. My 
_present_ knowledge ends at putting the initrd= line into the 
yaboot.conf file.)

mount -t cramfs /boot/initrd.img-2.6.(8|10)-powerpc /mnt
find /mnt >>file_for_sven
	Just for completeness, did it, attached (file_for_sven_initrd). Note: 
need -o loop. Interesting. I took a peek at the discussion that I 
believe you and Senior Hess were having, which kind of gets my curiosity 
in what this initrd does for you (me?). What are the basic pros and cons 
for using a initrd?

attache file_for_sven to a followup to this bug report.
    Done.
	[...snip...]
Ok, so please fix your (hand-crafted) yaboot.conf, and try again, my guess 
is
that things will immediately get fixed from there.
	It worked. I must have not done "something" right in all of the install 
confusion with the hangs and overwriting the boot partition. Thanks 
much. I will try out your 2.6.10-3-powerpc kernel, but for right now I 
do have to step away from the machine for a bit.

thanks again and keep up the good work,
jeff
