Hi Ennio. After an apt-get dist-upgrade I could not dual-(tripple)-boot my ibook g3 (Dual-USB late 2001 with 40 GB disk). Even a total new install of macos, macx, debain-etch did'nt help; Ubuntu-PPC did'nt help, changing the install-routine did'nt help ... Always all three OS were on the disk, but I could only access macx and linux. ybin was no help - though it reported no error and found the macos-partition. My best guess: something with the "blessing" went wrong.
My solution: (Dont ask me why it worked!) Step 1: Installing all three os (1. repartitioning the disk with the mac9.1-CDROM, then install macos, then install macx10.0.4, install last linux) Step 2: configure yaboot.conf for all three; run ybin -v: all three os were found, but only macx and linux bootable Step 3: Insert a USB-Stick Step 4: Boot from mac9.1-CDROM - the USB is shown on the desktop Step 5: Try to install mac9.1 on the USB-Stick! - some Error-messages came up - I didnt bother Step 5: Reboot from disk: all three os were bootable! (N.B. Had to re-format the USB-Stick with cfdisk - small issue) Hope this helps a bit. Another tip: hattrib can change hfs-formated file attributes. Since I have hfsplus it was no help for me. Even mol works fine (beside some CDROM issues) Norbert > I still lack a dual boot, but this is another issue ...
