Well at least you know your system is working properly, that is exactly what should happen given what you did :-)

The Tiger installation over-wrote yaboot on the boot sector of your drive. Had you installed the OSes in the opposite order you would be OK (I think).

Anyway, I believe if you simply boot into YDL and run ybin it should replace yaboot and things should run OK.

I recently got Yellowdog linux 4.0.1 and decided to give it a try on my PowerPC G5 2.5. I have 2 internal drives and decided to parition the first drive in two and installed YDL on the first partition and MAC OS X tiger on the second. The installation of YDL went fine but after I installed Tiger and rebooted, the system only boots up Tiger (with NO option of allowing me to choose one of the OS. Now I could only get to YDL by holding down the option key on the mac keyboard, where I will see a list of drives that have operating system installed. when I pick the drive that has YDL installed then the system would boot to that partition.,

Any ideas or suggestions on how I can fix this problem.


thanks
