hi all,
I have a problem and I'd like to know if anyone has experienced it :
I'm now using a G4-400 black&white. On it I've 2 IDE disks :
- On the first disk there is MacOSXServer and it is partionned as follows :
/dev/hda1 Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 (
31.5k) Partition map
/dev/hda2 Apple_Driver_ATA Macintosh 64 @ 64 (
32.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda3 Apple_Driver_ATA Macintosh 64 @ 128 (
32.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda4 Apple_Boot MOSX_OF3_Booter 16384 @ 192 (
8.0M) Unknown
/dev/hda5 Apple_Loader SecondaryLoader 1024 @ 16576
(512.0k) Unknown
/dev/hda6 Apple_Rhapsody_UFS Mac OS X Server 1.2 19993216 @ 17600 (
9.5G) Unknown
-On the second disk there is Debian PPC with the bootstrap partion :
/dev/hdb1 Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1 (
31.5k) Partition map
/dev/hdb2 Apple_Driver43 Macintosh 54 @ 64 (
27.0k) Driver 4.3

/dev/hdb9 Apple_UNIX_SVR2 /home 4194304 @ 524608 (

Here is my problem : When the G4 is launch the screen is at 640*480 as stays on
it until the linux kernel boots (and then it switch to 1024*768 : I've a 17"
monitor). But the point is when I launch MacOSXServer it keeps the 640*480, and
i need to login, change the resolution, logout nd relogin to be back in
1024*768. SoI'd like to know if there is a workaround in yaboot/ybin to be able
to boot at 1024*768 (or another solution). Here is my yaboot.conf (minus the
commented line, the post is long enough :-)) :
boot=/dev/hdb6
device=ultra1:
partition=11
delay=120
timeout=60
install=/usr/local/lib/yaboot/yaboot
magicboot=/usr/local/lib/yaboot/ofboot
fgcolor=white
bgcolor=black
image=/vmlinux
label=Linux
root=/dev/hdb11
read-only
image=/vmlinux.old
label=Linux.old
root=/dev/hdb11
read-only
macosx=hd:4
enablecdboot
enableofboot
Thanks a lot, and sorry for the length of the post
