Thank you, I hadn't realized that I was returning to a yaboot prompt after the -2 error code. I wasn't watching closely enough, and thought it was an OF prompt. I'll give this a whirl. Is there syntax for pointing to an installation image too? > > boot hd:9,\\:tbxi > > ah ha, this won't work unless A) the file acutally has file > type tbxi AND B) the root directory is blessed, AND C) > the file is a CHRP script. This must be the case, then, because it worked for me. I don't think I was very clear in this paragarph. You see, I'm trying to yaboot a kernel that's on an HFS partition (never did the linux installation, only the partitioning) and used the above to test to see if slice 9 was the right slice to find yaboot_0.5 on. I would love it if you could send me a binary that I could try. I did find a friend last night with a ppc machine that I used to try to build my own, but I'm getting the same failure to find yaboot_0.5 -- on an HFS partition, recall. I used Lynx to download the binary from Ben's page, so I'm confident that it wasn't the browser mangling the file in any way.
