Hi Joe:
It's great to be of help whenever possible; I just have to remember to
read the subject line more carefully :-).
There exists a field within the BootX dialog; it starts with / or /dev.
The idea is that you enter the mount point there, as in /hda5 or
whereever pdisk tells you the YDL mount point is. You don't need to
enter /dev/dev/hda5.
Best wishes....

Hey Joe -
The only bone I can think of tossing, offhand, is make sure that you
have BootX pointed to the right partition. I seem to recall when I
first installed 3.0 on my 7500, I had set it to hda8 when it should
have been hda9 - resulting in the kernel panic. if you are using the
original drive (or drive bus), I believe that your device should be
'/dev/sdax' - replacing 'x' with the right partition number for YDL.
If I'm not mistaken, the Classic OSes create 8 invisible (to Mac OS)
partitions to install disk drivers. You can check this by trial and
error, or you can find the Classic version of pdisk to check which
partition linux is on. I can't guarantee it, but this one should work
on 8.6:
