yaboot problems revisited

Wed, 26 Jan 2005 11:07:56 -0800

My HDD had extra "disks" such as disk1s1, disk1s2, etc., and the yaboot screen continued to come up even though YDL had been overwritten... Anyway, I tried to do ANOTHER reinstallation of 10.3.7, this time with writing zeroes during the erase, and now the installation won't even complete. Grrr...
FWIW, this is the second HDD that I've toasted by having attempted a YDL installation. Not that it's necessarily YDL's fault, but something in the installation process for the unitiated (me) causes a problem.
Not sure where this will go, but I think I'm done with YDL for now.
Thanks, everyone, for your courteous and helpful responses.

Thanks for the input, everyone. Right now I'm trying to rebuilt my OS X disk, so won't be able to try some of these things for a day or two. Will advise.
