reinstalling osx

2006-08-24 Thread koham zaku

Hi all

I've a dual boot, osx/debian (ibook 12' 1.2ghz) and need reinstall osx.
Of course, i don't want to reinstall debian too.
I've found this (thanks binzhang):

http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.ports.powerpc/browse_thread/thread/bd1f76e0daba307c/ff7254851521d267?q=restore+yaboot&lnk=nl&;

"On most (but not all) models that use *yaboot*, you don't need to bother
with a LiveCD or d-i to *restore* a lost *yaboot*. Just boot with the 
Option

key and *yaboot* should be an option. A different method can work depending
not on the model, but on your partition layout, and that is to zap the
PRAM (Cmd-Opt-P-R). Since you have already pasted your parted output, I
can tell you that this second method WILL work for you, guaranteed. No
mounting, no chroot, no ybin necessary, unless of course you already
messed everything up by overwriting your bootstrap partition with ybin
from d-i. "

I would like to now if anyone as already made it and got, after osx 
reinstallation and zapping PRAM, a dual boot back.


And if anyone could explain to me how does it work ?
I mean, when i reinstall osx, the sytem write boot information in PRAM, 
and so over yaboot ?


Thanks

Koham

And do you know how can i upgrade etch without firefox (to keep my
current version with work fine ) ?

Thanks
