But after running Panther (from an ext HD) for a few hours and then reboot, pressing the ALT key only revealed other OS X boot drives. The Linux is 'off the radar' once again.
This is a royal pisser: having to re-initialize the damn Linux to reset everything.
The OS X somehow takes control of what's inclusive in the 'boot club' and douches foreign drives.
Now I have the ExtFSManager system control and it DOES see the Linux partitions on the other drive. They're all 'untitled' except for the swap drive which is labeled.
I'll try the 'linux rescue' in a moment.
But can't OS X play 'fair' and allow the Linux to be seen at start up? Or is it a hardware problem of some sort?
Regards,
Ric.

What happened when you rebooted?
Try booting and holding down the option key, and see if a penguin icon shows
up.
try booting the install cd, and selecting 'linux rescue'. does it detect your
linux partitions? if so, chroot to it, and run ybin -v.
