Sterling, I had similar problems years ago when I tried to add a new drive to my existing OSX setup (running on a beige G3). I have had *no* issues with Panther, Tiger, and YDL (multiple versions) existing on my dual G5. I've got a custom version of ybin that lets me have multiple (currently 2) different OS X versions. I'd sent this customized ybin to both TSS and the yaboot folks a couple of years ago. I believe what other folks have said is correct, the directions are in the YDL manual, and start with using the OS X 'disk utility' to partition whatever disk you will be installing YDL on. This keeps OS X happy.

It was available with 1 or 2 processors at speeds IIRC from 1.0 to 1.25 GHz. Even Apple refers to them as MDD macs. For details see http://support.apple.com/kb/SP63 My system has 4 INTERNAL drives, 2 GB memory and dual 1.25 GHz processors. A bit more info- the partitions are Apple_UNIX_SVR2 but Leopard still complains via a dialog box at boot time about an unknown disk partition - could it be the swap partition for YDL??? Is there no one out there who runs YDL 6 and MacOSX in my configuration? The Suse people have figured out how to coexist quite nicely in this configuration but their release has some other serious issues I've hit. I think I'll go back to MacOSX Server and leave the Linux stuff for the quad core Xenon people.
