Another alternative is to boot into OpenFirmware (Command-Option-O-F)
and manually set the boot device:
First, to load yaboot, try:
0 > boot hd:2,yaboot
As to my knowlegde, you have to use
boot hd:2,\ofboot.b
because "ofboot.b" is the linux-bootloader of a new world powerpc
(tested on mac mini with debian testing) and "\" is the correct sign
for "/" on the open firmware level.
Please notice one point. You have to use the new world boot-
partition, which is not "/" and not "/boot" of your debian-
installation. If hd:2, is not your new world boot-partition, please
change this path.
