Package: yaboot
Version: 1.3.16-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Fresh installation of 8.6.0 on a Power Mac G5 (2005) onto the second SATA disk.
The installation proceeded without errors, but it was not possible to boot
into Linux afterwards.  Booting the DVD in rescue mode showed the second
disk was partitioned correctly and the bootstrap and root partitions were
present.  Installation onto the first SATA disk produced a working boot
configuration.

Mounting the bootstrap partition and correcting ofboot.b with the following
diff produces a working boot of the second stage yaboot program on the
second SATA disk.
